  1. Good to hear that you have been well looked after outside of warranty. That has been my experience with Mercedes as well. That's a very fine looking car you have there in Sonic Red. There are a couple of low-mileage 2018 ones like that on Autotrader now outside of Lexus dealership network and I could be tempted. I've only ever seen one LC, on show outside my local Lexus Centre, when it was first launched never one on the road.
  2. Thanks for the detailed reply. This part sounds ideal to me. Set and forget.
  3. Out of curiosity, how does the Climate Concierge work? In my Merc the handbook advises you to just set the temperature to 22c and leave it alone. It works well and I can choose when to augment it with heated/cooled seats. If I understand correctly, the LC has heated and cooled seats and heated steering wheel. Does Climate Concierge manage to juggle these successfully all year round along with the right amount of airflow? I watched a 1hr30m YouTube video on all the things you can configure via the infotainment system yesterday and it was a bit bewildering. I've also spoken with Lexus Stoke and it turns out that the UK 2019 model year did not include the ride, gearbox and CarPlay updates. Not that these were must-haves for my anyway. But this does open the door looking at >2yr old vehicles.
  4. Thank you for the replies and words of encouragement! The infotainment system isn't a significant thing to me - I'm much more interested in the depth of engineering and real-world driving experience. Let's see what I can find when Lexus are open to test drives once again.
  5. Hello folks, I'm going to treat myself to a new (used) car this spring and the LC500 has really grabbed my attention. As a current owner of a W222 Merc S-Class I was going down the AMG GT route, but the LC500 just looks more special. I am set on the V8 with the Sport+ pack and the 2019 model year looks ideal with the updated ride, gearbox, CarPlay and balance of Lexus warranty. For now I'm watching the classifieds. I'd prefer to buy from Lexus. I have a local dealership but they don't have stock. I'll need to arrange a test-drive when these become available again. They do appear to hold their values well. The least expensive 2019 car I can see now is £63K with 15,000 miles. What advice would you give me? Thank you!
