Yes, odd. That one's not on Autotrader or the official Lexus Used lists, but it IS on Lexus Coventry's own website. Sometimes these listings are a bit hit & miss.Not my colour though. So that's about 5 post '23 refresh coupes so far, 2 at Lincoln, one at Grimsby & Cheltenham, and this one. Might even get into double figures at this rate!

Not sure, mines the hybrid so I'm probably not familiar with that. I''m sure others will chime in. It's a BMW main dealer; looks like he part-ex'd it for a BM after 3 months ?

This one's just turned up, only 3 months old, in Grimsby. Not a Lexus dealer though. Someone didn't keep it for long...... https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202403278019179?sort=price-desc&advertising-location=at_cars&make=Lexus&model=LC&postcode=wn12nq&year-to=2024&fromsra

A quick breakdown of those stats shows about 45 new registrations in 2023 of V8's, and 7 hybrids. Doesn't seem to be able to split the V8's into coupe or convertible though, and obviously all the convertibles are V8's. I guess there's probably 7 hybrid coupes and maybe 25-35 V8 coupes? The Lexus & Cheltenham ones are all registered from 1/9/2023 onwards, so I guess that's probably when the facelifted ones started appearing.

Other than convertibles, there's also a V8 coupe at Lexus Cheltenham, but it's Sport Grade, not Sport +, and no hybrids anywhere yet that I can see. I wouldn't be surprised if the number of post-'23 coupes gets much out of single figures.

I notice that there's currently no post-'23 facelift coupe models at all on Autotrader; there are 3 coupes on the official used lists, 2 are at Lexus Lincoln and the other is at Cheltenham. All V8's, though the Cheltenham one is Sport grade so has those reversed black/white wheels, which in my opinion are not nice at all! All hovering just under £90k, and I'm pretty sure the Lincoln ones have been up for some months. Probably will get more showing up over the next months, but not sure how many will have made it to the UK before they pulled the plug, I suspect very few.

Couldn't agree more, I've had mine 3 years next month and I am really struggling to find anything else I'd want. Had this conversation with one or two people recently. A real shame that Lexus have stopped taking UK orders for the LC, but (as yet) don't seem to be planning a replacement. I probably would have waited till '25/'26 then tried to find a used '23 facelift model, but there'll probably be so few in the country I'd physically not be able to find one in the right spec/colour. Holding on to mine for the forseeable I think, I'm only doing 6-7k a year mileage.

Hi Paul, I had this problem 2 years ago & it was replaced by the dealer, free of charge- Not had a recurrence, but it does seem, to agree with Brian, a bit of a 'feeble' mechanism.

Might be looking to change my LC in 24/25 but I think those Sport+ wheels, whilst nice, seem a bit 'busy' and probably much more difficult to keep clean than the current 21" ones. Other than the touchscreen, doesn't look very different at all to mine. Still no other car I'd really be tempted by out there at the moment, even at 1.5 -2x the price point. Being cash-only as well, plus the excellent car & dealer experience I've had, makes me loath to change from Lexus. Time to get on the configurator, I think!

My LC is black with black interior, and the mats are indeed...black! I seem to remember noticing somewhere that the mats are indeed colour-matched, but I'm sure other members will clarify soon.

Might be in the market for one of these when the time comes, probably a used one in 2025, assuming this becomes UK spec. Really can't think of another car I'd want at present, just talking to a guy in the gym about this today! Just nothing else out there like it, ideal for me.

Lexus Bolton were great with mine, car was barely 2 years old at that point, no questions asked.

I've always understood it's the latter that's true, ie from MY21 onwards only, and no retrofit available in the UK. Will stand corrected if wrong though!

Thanks, this seems to have resolved this issue, it’s page 180 in the manual I downloaded when I bought the car last year.

That's interesting; I haven't switched keys at all,l but I wonder if somehow the car and the key have got 'confused' somehow. I think there is a section in the manual on this. I'll have a look in the next day or two.
