    @PhoeNicks Always happy to help Nick there are some great people on here with a lot of knowledge of the cars and a few changes if that’s your desire that easily reversible all add to the ownership enjoyment, some I have experience of but not carried out myself so you you could have a natter with for instance @emjay82 for media upgrade and a switchable exhaust, or @Womble72 for a catback exhaust. Someone like @Peter P18 for carbon interior and exterior parts don’t let him lead you down the supercharger route though may be just to much extra thrust with that new baby on board 😂 Big Rat

    @Tfp Absolutely Tim we’ve had the best of it and a few more years of it left so like you I believe just enjoy while we can. I know you are fully qualified to have a view on car pricing that is bourne out by experience by way of occupation and yes the future is changing us over to a silent or enhanced artificial ‘exhaust and engine’ noise but hey ho we can’t prevent that and like you I love what I have now and there is still a fair few who are still willing to pay for our pleasures.....

    @PhoeNicks Nick the car looks absolutely fantastic, most impressive let’s all hope you stay on board here with us, as that number plate may suggest you could easily pop over to the @Warrington guy Dave camp.😂 Thanks for the mention regarding the wheels and tyres and yes Sam at Lexus Cheltenham has done a great job on the refurb for you.

    @Comedian Sean well aren’t you just the silver tongued devil “Aural Motoring Pleasures “ Like that.... well I’m happy to slum it for now until the ultimate comes along 😊 🐀

    @Martin F Martin yes your right just wishful thinking on my part I guess, I really must try harder to get myself by one at that start up moment I feel inadequate at the moment..........☺️ 🐀

    @gdh300 No probs Matey an F pace honestly 😆 I’m watching for when the car comes to market maybe you could treat yourself, they seem to lose about 50% a year now 😁 🐀

    @FTBBCVoodoo But Lee you forget they will enhance the performance of it even more...... they are the ‘Nurburgring version’......😆 🐀

    @Bluethunder Nean yes I saw that guessing the deal fell through, it’s a shame low miles low owners to high a price I guess still. Big Rat

    @Womble72 Paul I really don’t know the legal position of this but I can certainly understand the insurance aspect, looks like the car has a detachable fitment. I reckon they would make a pretty impressive tow car albeit the torque is a little to far up the scale..... just have to punch it I guess.... POWER....as Clarkson would say 😂 Big Rat

    @gdh300 Hi Glyn one of the guys who recently bought an Rcf spotted another on the road the day before yesterday in Hampshire, I originally thought it was one I know is for sale but in fact it was most likely the one in the vid below which is allocated to Alberta Costa don’t know if you’ve seen the vid.... Big Rat

    @gb1600e Glynn yes the panels on the Stoke car certainly need some attention, the Edinburgh car does look nice it came from Manheim auction Birmingham to the dealer at Edinburgh a few months ago, more than that I know no more about the car. Heres a picture of her at the auction. Big Rat

    @gb1600e Thanks Glynn kind of you to say so, keep looking the right one will come along 👍 Big Rat

    @Bluethunder It certainly does have one Nean I spoke with the owner as someone pm me about the car, he used it to pull his jet ski apparently, these cars were never holmigated to tow in the Uk I don’t know about other markets where they were sold. Maybe @ColinBarber can throw some light on that. He bought the car from Lexus Derby and had it for 5 years with nay a problem...... I don’t know anymore Scottish......☺️ Big Rat

    There’s a fair few for sale at the moment both at main dealers and Auto trader, one has over 100k miles for a little over £12.5k and Lexus reading put a 13plate car on for £32k no pictures as yet. This is the second time we’ve seen £32k in recent months. The last one was @Warrington guy Daves old car, which although it didn’t sell at the indie that bought it originally it did go quickly at Lexus Hedge End. Big Rat

    @Comedian I shall have a look at that thanx........dude.....🙄 🐀
  21. Big Rat
    @Comedian Well PistonHeads says it is so that’s a fact then..........😂 Could we be seeing lots of nice ‘F’ type variants in the next year or so 🤞 Still haven’t seen an original one in the flesh 🐀
  22. Big Rat
    This has been spotted at the Nurburgring shall we start our own rumour mill, is it a mule for a replacement or testing parts for another in the ‘F’ range ? https://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-japanesecars/lexus-lfa-widebody-on-the-ring--whats-going-on/38908 Big Rat

    @Tfp Thanx Tim just curious 👍 🐀
  24. Big Rat
    @Tfp Tim I’m sat under mine as we speak....... and sunshine is coming in......☺️ Hey Tim did that White RCF sell at Enfield you mentioned ? 🐀

    @B1 RMA The car I mentioned was being used by the dealer principal and when a fair few of us had Quicksilver Exhausts fitted by his dealership I arranged for one for that car. It was on for a short time and used at an event they arranged at Presscot Hill climb they do sound great. I know when the car went on sale the system was taken off, but who knows maybe it’s back on 😉 Are you considering an exhaust for yours ? Big Rat
