  1. Depends upon your budget, go for the best spec and age you can afford. The last updated model was 2018 onwards, these are pretty good at F Sport or Takumi spec. Go for the premium nav system (10" screen) Tech Pack and Convivence pack.
  2. But not the CT200h. Not affected by the Can Bus issue. Refusing to insure all Lexus cars is just lazy underwriting. Julie, check the comparison sites, plenty of insurers happy to quote on the CT200h
  3. You are at the max for battery life. 15 years or 150k miles is pretty guaranteed, after this point you should consider the cost of replacement hybrid battery. Could be absolutely fine.
  4. Pretty sure, but hey you clearly know more than me about my own cars! Perhaps your view is not the only one in world, you are of course welcome to your opinion.
  5. I have both the CT and the Yaris, never noticed any issues with the CT, very smooth drive not harsh at all. No problems with the interior trim. So no we do not all know. The Yaris is a much harsher ride and rattle's much more. Clearly not built better than the CT. Good car but not a patch on the CT.
  6. I suspect LV are withdrawing from the Hybrid market.
  7. Agree. The CT is not affected by Can bus issue. More of an LV issue I feel, many comments on the Toyota forum about LV not wanting to renew insurance on Hybrids. Marketing/underwriting decisions it would seem.
  8. Just renewed CT, all quotes up from £440 last year to around £650. Settled with current insurer for £670, because they did not want to increase the Excess to £250+. Still only £100 excess. Have noticed all new quotes have raised excesses considerably. Starlet went from £250 to £300, but interestedly current insurer did not want to renew this year. No problem finding other quotes. ??
  9. My key fobs slide open-remove key and slide cover toward the top of the fob. Hopefully yours is the same.
  10. There is no kick down on a Lexus or Toyota CVT. Pressing the pedal hard, signals a requirement for more power which the drives, ICE and battery supply immediately. Slamming your foot down does not automatically produce greater speed on a CVT, Slower but clear pressure on the pedal will. That's how it works.
  11. Like retire and enjoy the hundreds of millions of pounds they have already. Will another few millions improve the rest of their lives to any measurable degree?
  12. I think it was the cycle stored on the back of the car that caused the fire. 😳
  13. Peter, Given the answer's above it would seem that someone in Japan had a re-think. Positive improvement.
  14. Could be, should be simple enough to include. Car logic!!
  15. That may be the case for basic CC but not ACC. This clearly adapts to the speed of the traffic with the option to override at any time. Or just drive and control the speed yourself. 😎
  16. Had this on other makes but not on a Toyota or Lexus. However, cruise control does the same thing really.
  17. Given the relationship between Khan and the Met, they probably have to pay double.
  18. Who doesn't have to pay congestion charges? Blue Badge holders. Roadside recovery vehicles. Accredited breakdown vehicles. Vehicles with nine or more seats. Cars that emit 75g/km or less of CO2. Zero-emission vehicles (Fully electric vehicles and any other zero emissions vehicles)
