    I have just tried all the major insurance comparison sites, plus a few companies that don't appear on these sites, and didn't get a single quote!

    Same problem here, your not on your own. Lexus insurance have quoted £906 for premium plus with one claim for a write off (my fault) and 3 points for speeding.

    Comparison sites are usually half the price of Lexus insure. Still waiting patiently, 12 days till I pick mine up.

    Hi All,

    As a New member both to this club & forum ( and with an LBX on order ) I must say I am more than a little shocked at the figures for insurance that have been quoted for what is a relatively small vehicle engine & emission's wise !!  I am coming from long term mercedes benz ownership and have never been quoted anything like those figures ( even when I had business use included ). What's the general consensus on here re insurance issue ? My car has been ordered from Lexus Hull but this insurance issue is making me now think twice about changing allegiance !!!

    Thanks for reading and any replies would be much appreciated .

    I am waiting for the insurance companies to get to grips. It's only been a week since they had group numbers issued. I am pretty sure by this time next week all will be well and all these issues will be a distant memory.

    I agree! My car has now arrived at long last, today I have tried numerous comparison websites and LV, Hastings, Lexus, Admiral etc. After a long and involved conversation I’ve decided to go with NFU at an eye watering £740, I’m sure the price will come down in the next few months so I’ll be keeping an eye on what’s happening and when and if the prices start to drop I’ll cancel my policy and start again. 
    I’m collecting my LBX on Wednesday afternoon - I’m so excited and am sure it’ll be worth all the hassle…

    If anyone wants to try NFU give them a call 0808 189 8702, I spoke to Cammy he was very helpful. 

    Thank you Sandra. Worth a look see.

  4. I could be wrong but... it sounds like it could be an issue with the brake servo or master cylinder. I have seen this problem with cars in my previous life as a mechanic. Far be it for me to question Lexus technicians, I haven't  touched a spanner in years and not up to speed with current technology. ABS sensor fault would just flag up an alarm without brake failure (red herring maybe).

  5. Hi all.

    Collecting my new NX this week and planning ahead. I have paid £620 for the paint and wheel protection pack and think the cleaning chemicals that my local £6 hand wash peeps use will ruin it.

    Question is. Can I use my current collection of Poorboys waxes and shampoo with carnauba wax or do I need synthetic stuff?

    Just purchased a pressure washer and snow foam adaptor. Which snow foam is safe to use with the Lexus protection treatment?

    Thank you for reading my post and will value all advise. 

    Regards Nige.
