  1. Ive actually been tempted to email him via autotrader.... Asking him nicely...
  2. Swear im going insane. 100% there was a photo of a heated seat button and the plastic between the two buttons had an off coloured indentation like a scratch... Was going to screen shot it and post it when I done my initial comment.
  3. Nope thats a someone has done that. The first Lexus with non silver trim was the Is500 F-Sport thingy over in the states. So therefore... lucky you sir free mod
  4. Yeah thats pretty. Red / Blue was always my 2nd favourite colour combo. But I wonder.... How on earth have they scratched the plastic for the heated seat button ? Previous owner had metal nails or something
  5. Lexus will undoubtedly make a next gen super car, but I seriously doubt the LFA name will be used. There has been news for over a year now regarding what the vehicle may be and I've seen everything from v10 to EV for the engine itself. The LFA does something that has rarely been achieved before, it is recognised by everyone as a masterpiece. - And I do not know of a single person that would not have it in the "dream car line up" if money was no object.
  6. You should smoke the chrome around the windows to make it match those rims. That silver just looks so out of place. Stunning looking height.
  7. This made me laugh out loud ... I'll brew some Darjeeling
  8. I get that, and even if I was to remove the v8s from my thought process though, the ES is just a pointless car to some degree. It should of been a full EV to achieve what lexus have tried to do with it. It's almost as if they wanted to release a new car away from the GS family but not really have clear direction. It is quite possibly the worst car in the lexus lineup. Hybrids are great but they aren't exactly really mpg friendly, as for the ES, would rather grab a Tesla or an EV6 if I was to remove the v8 mentality. As per the above mentioned typical Es owner.
  9. I read that if you get a fully carbon fibre one you can travel through time it's so fast.
  10. I saw one on Instagram the other day with both the stock spoiler up and a nice big ol' wing, looked so aggressive. Ive tried finding the same image no luck still as of yet
  11. Should just go for one of these instead, https://motivejapan.com/rowen-lexus-rc-f-low-mount-rear-wing.html
  12. I actually agree with him with a lot of his Lexus comments, also he loved the GSF. Not just the lfa. Personally I doubt I would ever own an ES. I find it it pretty to look at (front) and I love the grille on newer Lexus models especially the F-Sport / F version of it I find the rear of the ES bland almost as if they forgot what they were trying to achieve. But I just find the hybrid drive system beyond mundane. Lexus called me recently for another new plate launch event and I had 0 interest not even just to go poke my nose about. As a car enthusiast Lexus right now feel a tad lost, its clear with the new model variants and the redesign of "F" they are planning something but what that is has yet to been made aware to the end user. For years they have tried to make the cars more visibly appealing to a broader range of customers which they have done. But the engine is why it still doesn't have the uptake. Europe's forced push of hybrid hasn't worked well.
  13. Well well well, aint that a sexy set of wheels you've landed yourself with. Love the fact its got the quicksilver on it, stock exhaust takes away a lot of the fun. Stunning that red interior on the white REALLY stands out. 😂😅 Ive started looking at the RCF's on auto trader... The grey 10th anniversary one (the interior is just lush) & those track editions.... (Wish they would drop a little). Nice to hear your already getting some head turning going on. The angles and slope on the front end really make it stand out.
  14. Its just a crap advert overall. The photography is sub-par even for a mobile phone standard. The imagery as you've said is old. I don't think the modifications really effect the sale of it tbh not the ones it has anyway. Its also being sold privately the only ones that have sold private have been sold back to dealers, and then relisted for 7k+ more. Lexus obviously wouldn't buy this though due to the modifications, and even when selling privately 30k+ region of cars are hard to shift, no PCP no protection no finance etc. 60k Miles isnt huge for a car of 2016 origin, good MOT data and viewable no advisory to be concerned of. When mine was up for sale at 35k with 41k miles I was getting private offers of no more than 25k, If I could of sold it on finance would of moved it with ease. Also I do hope the figure starts to flat line at some point, Ive said it before I would love to own another one but for the price they currently list at im buying an LC500 or an R35.
  15. That GSF would of been £15k less than last year.
  16. Mental isnt it... The fact I bought my one in 2020 for £30k and sold it a year later with a lot more miles and broke even. Love the car would happily own one again but at those prices wouldnt touch it. In a year the market will stabilize once more. (Well the carbon issue is starting to have some sway to that but its up there, will either be a GSF/LC500/R35)
  17. Im gonna win the lottery this year coming and buy one....
  18. The one youve linked is the best priced one up on AT. Enjoy your test drive & GL on the search
  19. Oooo just remembered. Try https://www.torqen.uk/ They stock UK GThaus products for some cars, not sure if the remote systems are all interchangeable but I imagine so
  20. Have you tried GTHaus direct?: https://gthaus.com/product/wireless-remote-one-touch-upgrade-for-gtc-only-vacuum/
  21. It was about to be ordered, but it was then decided to sell the car. If I was to buy another one tomorrow I would have the exhaust on order before I even had received the car. I would only buy vavled exhaust systems out of respect for my neighbours and less chance of police pull overs. Leaving 3 options The bazooka system from RR is ok as a comparison but lacks the attitude. The Armatryx one has worse drone. GtHaus. - it's basically like your ears having s*x with the car.
