Wow, thought there'd be more than 6! Not tried the lc on GT yet but the rcf is a bit of a handful with the TC off 🤣

Looks lovely and sounds like a cracking deal 🖒

Had mine done today at Cardiff. No issues and they gave £25 of fuel which apparently lexus hq will cover. They cleaned the inside but I told them not to touch the outside as I only trust highly paid professionals with my paintwork 🤣 Got a CT loaner and really enjoyed it, apart from the gearbox!

Think we can all agree that black isf's are the cleanest judging by this thread 😎

Looks great and you've used some good quality products 🖒 You clearly know your stuff, were you worried about the quality of the application of the Williams or did you know who was going to do it beforehand?

That's good value for a product that should last 2 years. I'll be paying over £500 for a similar treatment next week but it will last up to 5 years 😊

Top tip: If you go above 150mph on the bridge they let you go through the toll for free 🖒

Pretty sure my wife will never log on here, she's had enough Lexus talk in the last 12 months to last a lifetime! I can't afford to take her to McDonald's at the moment let alone a Michelin star place 😂

Mines booked in to cardiff no problem 😊

You're probably right whatever you're thinking 😆

Hi, I've not been on here much recently due to my holiday and then coming back to a load of work that my colleagues kindly left for me 😧 Here's my quick update for anyone who cares: Holiday to florida was good and at least now I can say I survived a hurricane! I saw one gsf (doesn't look good in red) but no isf's. I got a 2.3 turbo mustang convertible for the trip. Overall it is a good car, apart from the completely numb steering, but a 4 cylinder engine is just wrong in a Stang! It went ok but just makes the wrong noise 😔 While I was away my car was in the paint shop having the front bumper, bonnet and sideskirts resprayed. No photos as it hasnt stopped raining since I picked it up but he's done a great job for £700. I've also had the mot this week which it passed with no advisories, not bad for 9 years and 107k miles 😎. Having said that the estimate for a service was a bit scary, apparently there is no record of my spark plugs ever being changed so i need them doing at great expense 🤤. Going to get that done next week once I've recovered from the shock. I've also ordered the usrs today and will be getting a full valet and ceramic coating for the new paint soon so let's hope the wife doesn't find the credit card statement this month 😳 P.s. there was a dodge dealer just down the road from where I was staying in Florida who had a very rare and random super bee tribute parked outside next to the hellcats. Not to everyone's taste but put a smile on my face 🤠

I know the instant torque of new turbo engines make the German cars more responsive but I like to work an engine, build up to the power and enjoy hearing it get angrier and angrier! I don't really care how quickly im going it's about the experience. I honestly don't think i could be trusted with 500+bhp on the public road anyway. Luckily the gsf only has 470 😁

Yes, you have to buy it soon after buying the car but it doesn't usually matter if it is a new car or 2nd hand, up to 10 years old usually.

Hi Pete, congratulations on the SC kit! I've just placed my order too, just let me know when you need any info from me 🖒

Only for certain cars that are over 25 years old 😕 Most insurers pay book prices which are very low for Lexus f cars. Agreed value or gap is a must sadly.

My Auntie calls my car Larry 😳

Eight years is long enough, time to treat yourself!

I've just got back from my holiday so I'll sort mine out tomorrow when I'm not jet lagged 😆

Thanks, could be them. It's a good system.

Thanks Pete, sounds good to me.

Take my car for a drive next time I see you and see if you can feel a difference 😊

Just let me know when you want to place the order and I'll transfer the money 🖒

I run wider tyres on wider wheels, told the insurance company about the wheels but not tyres per se. As comedian says a claim would only be refused if the accident was directly caused by the tyres, which would only really happen if they were below thelegal limit. It's highly unlikely that anyone would ever check your tyre size, especially if you are on standard rims. Frankly insurance companies are more focused on fraudsters and drink drivers, not lexus drivers!

The mustang is about half the price of a new rcf so it's no surprise that the interior and safety equipment is a bit lacking. I've driven a rental mustang convertible V6 in the states and it was a lot of fun. All controls were nicely weighted and it handled well. I suspect the V8 is a real cracker. I see the appeal of them but they are a big car for UK roads and I'd rather pay extra and stick with Japanese build quality 😊

It sure is!
