Halfords is fine if you want a sponge or some screenwash, I would not let their techs touch my Lexus.

Check the 12V battery first as others have suggested.

For a Battery I'd let my neighbours dog do it. I wouldn't take it to Halfords for anything other than the Battery or consumables lol. 

Any work is done via dealer so.

Looks familiar...

If it's been recently serviced and the battery is bad, there should be a "fail" on the hybrid health check, which also looks at the 12v battery. They should have told you about it.

Nope nothing mentioned.

Had all those on my LS600hL ……me thinking the world was going to end 🤣

… ‘twas but a low voltage failing 12v battery

May just take it to Halfords then rather than booking in at lexus 😂

So the wife's car this morning, randomly gave all these error messages out of the blue.

Recently serviced motd via dealer. 

Then in the drive through this morning every light on the dash lit up 

Braking power low

Abs system malfunction

Brake override malfunction

Pre crash safety malfunction

Anybody any ideas 😇😂

After years of constant nagging, Lexus have finally come back with a ‘good will gesture’ offer of £3600 to replace my rear spoiler  and centre console and dash trims. Obviously I’m not proceeding with that 😡. Does anyone have the contact details of the head honcho at Lexus?  Worth a letter to express my dissatisfaction with the brand I think.  

Director of lexus UK

chris-hayes@lexus.co.uk

or

President and director of UK toyota

Lol it happens. 

It moved quickly tbh, lexus put stock exhaust back on it iirc. The last ad I saw from Swindon didn't have the gthaus. 

I'm getting tempted to buy another, a friend of mine (and ex colleague )at lexus Ipswich has advised me to sell the wife's NX asap as used market is dropping rapidly. 

So hoping that the orange one price plummets, as it's been sat still for well over a year. It was also purchased at auction for 26/27.  The wife has told me I need to buy a new car 😂

0 reds in UK.

<5 blue blues in UK don't think any of them are on the forum 

Silvers gonna be your most accessible

Anyone know anything about it? Wondering why it won’t sell. Do you think it’s the colour scheme?

Non lexus dealer, worse interest rates on finance etc. 

Very comfortable

So I’m not on here much at all now but I see a few have mentioned they’ve passed onto pastures new …..like @Arnett I did consider an LC 500 and was going to order a new vehicle but decided to take full retirement instead and Mrs Rat and me are off travelling around Europe….in this….

But the petrolhead in me isn’t giving up completely so I’ve got this as well….it’s hilarious to drive….

So I’ll be dragging the Abarth behind the motor home in this country just to slow down all you ‘F’ Fellas ☺️
 

🐀

 

Man what a retirement journey your gonna have, a friend of mine done similar around Europe and then the USA. 

Besides once your home and resettled an LC will be easy to come by. 

I mean it's not an F.... 

But, I decided to do something different over the last couple of months 😅

And purchased a very different type of new wheels to fly around on. 

Should keep me entertained till I decide on the lc500 or not 😅

6 on AT, plus the purple on top gear Stoke.

I've been looking at the Gr Yaris this week for myself as a run about, but im also doing my mod 1&2 and I doubt the wife will want me buying a new bike and car...

TBH the purple wrap does nothing  for me, not a big fan of the original orange but I'd rather that than purple.

Laziness on behalf of dealer not to post their own pictures imo.

Iirc from the original AT ad prior to auction the car also had an optical starlight headliner modification... No mention of that 

Top gear stoke still has the orange / purple one listed with no pictures other than the ones from the auction site

Just seen this on Lexus Website.

Is this a special halo model ?

This is the greedy c**t dealer special edition 

It's tempting just to be go and leave them a Google review for that inflated price alone.

Revolting behaviour 

Dealer finance options are.usually a lot better, I reckon even with that 5k difference the dealer one works out cheaper 

My gsf was £900 with my 9 points 🫣

Still showing on Fleabay £37995

The ad was so lazy awful images still from the auction. It's also still listed on their website.

The "chrome" trim on the. RC 300 f sport has a bronze colour finish.It might be possible to get that from Lexus if someone didn't want to go down the wrap route.

Yeah the gsf chrome around the grille is like a dark smoked.chrome however the window chrome is still hideously silver 

Looking good! 

Window chrome is so ugly imo

Hoping to join your club when used GS-F hit 25k in private sales....until then v6 it is

I mean I'm an advocate of the current market is forked.

I don't think you'll see them at 25 for at least 10 years and that's if they don't hold like wallstreetbets members having a laugh.

I may be repurchasing when they return to prepandemic levels so about 30-35.

Well it'll be a gsf / r35 / lc500 but I'm not sure which one, currently doing my motorbike licence to scratch the speed itch
