Hi Peter, what increase in power are they getting in the US for the RCF? 

 According to "how many left" website there are 174 RCF registered compared to 214 ISF's.

Been following the prices for RCF and the cheapest one(Lexus Croydon) was 34K but the same car is now advertised at 38K, so not sure what's going on there...

I removed the DVD, cleaned it and load it again but same error message.

So I then tried disconnecting the Battery for a few minutes then tried again but this time the message was that no program could be read and to consult the dealer.

Looks like need to head to the dealer! :(...

Hi Guys,

My Sat Nav has suddenly stopped working and displays the following on screen message "Unable to read data. Check if the map DVD is correct"

Tried pressing the menu button but nothing happens... So I called Lexus but was told that I need to pay a £90 "diagnostic fee" even though I have the extended warranty which I questioned but they were insistent that I would need to pay that.

Can anyone help?

Cheers,

Nean

What was the drive like in the LC compared to the RCF?

A Cupra R driver gave the "thumps up" at the traffic lights but my oil temp was on 1 bar so I shock my head at him. We had a brief chat and when the lights changed he floored it. That's was the only occasion in my 1 year of ownership. 

Croydon are offering 3 years free servicing now. Has anyone been to look at this car? 

If it wasn't a 4 hr drive for me I would definitely take a look...

The price of the black one at Lexus Croydon has now increased to £35,500!... Was £34,650. Bizarre.

Looks great in estate form, much prefer this to the saloon.

I'm surprised that the one at Lexus Croydon for £35K has not been sold..

It's a tricky one.. I think subtle additions like a front splitter works well. 

I keep on saying to myself to be strong minded and don't think about changing to a RCF until end of the year, so this thread is not helping!!...  

Bought my car almost a year ago and it was the first one I viewed. The others were quite far away. 

After a few emails back and forth the seller drove the car to my house, on his way to Manchester airport.  

I viewed the car again a week later at his office car park and bought it with £500 discount.

The seller was a nice bloke and very helpful. He said he had encountered a lot of time wasters(emails/calls) but no one had actually viewed the car!... 

They have the wrong size tires on too!

They might be fast but... I couldn't live with those looks.  

What was the reason for selling previously? Welcome back from another silver owner!

I thought it was expensive but did't want the hassle of taking it somewhere else... They sent me a nice video of the inspection( with commentary) of the car on the ramp though!..

Does anyone know if the MOT cover on the warranty extends to stuff like Xenon headlight bulb?  

Got charged £77 for replacement when I took the F for MOT and I have a warranty.

There's only one ISF for sale on Lexus website so I guess maybe they feel that someone will pay a premium for that car.

@Colin Herridge How does the GSF compare to the ISF?  Didn't you consider the RCF?

I think the spindle front looks good, makes the car look more modern. 

That's a smart looking kit. Quite subtle which is a good thing.

Just noticed that there are now more RCF's on AT than ISF! Even GSF numbers are up to 10. 

Almost £5.5K for a TRD carbon bonnet!... Love the TRD styling but not keen on the rear spoiler..

@Big Rat, it's the same rare colour(my favourite!) and year but different car.

That bloke is a nutter! :)

Wow! I can't believe how many cars some of you guys have owned! In comparison I'm only on my 7th car in just over 20 years...
