If it's graphite black then it's probably a Black Inspiration...

Want to buy Ferrada alloys but think  the 19" may not make me happy, want to avoid rubbing on front mud covers.

There is a red example on autotrader that's on 20". Maybe you can contact the seller for some pointers.

Have never seen a Red GSF.  Anybody seen one on the road?

Not a bad deal, just purchased 1 x 235 40 19 96Y Bridgestone Potenza RE050A with fitting for under £170 on eBay Blackcircle shop with their 15% off coupon.

7 On AT + the purple wrap one ....could it be, most of them being 2016 models, are at the infamous 6yr service mark ? 

9 in total for sale on AT + Fleabay.

I'm not sure . RCF levels have dropped to probably the lowest ever with only 11 available on AT tonight.

There's a white RCF that hasn't moved yet they've consistently dropped the price. It's overdue two services and the front alloys are scrubbed. The dealer is part of KIA, clearly clueless as a Lexus service six months back would probably have moved it on.  

I've been watching this RCF in question and will be great buy if one gets this lazy dealer to service the car at Lexus before purchase. 

I am also cautious as the MOT expired September 2021 and had some advisories. It appears the car is not well maintained and all the advisories will need to be addressed as well before purchase. 

£5k drop is tempting but more investigation will be needed before committing to buy.

Congrats on your purchase. 

This was near where I live and I went to view the car but didn't have the courage to go ahead because of it's patchy service history and the fact that it was a previous category D repaired car.

I was the one who registered it on the Lexus Link as the owner didn't know about it. See the pics attached. 

Received in post today from a very generous forum member.

Wife loves it 😁.

Few pictures to share.

Thanks Nikki!

Hi Karl,

The previous owner of my car fitted the roof rails in our 2015 RX450h.

See the attached images of the instruction manual which includes the Lexus part number - 08301-48800.

I believe the cost is around £300 from Lexus Parts Direct.

I hope this helps.

Has anyone got a use for this (great colour for finding in the bottom of a bag)

I now have a different style Lexus key fob, don't really want to just chuck.....  recycle and all that.

Don't want any money for it, happy to just pop it in an envelope and post to anyone in the UK that can use it.

Regards

Nikki

Hi,

If it's still available, I will have it for my wife as she likes pink.

Let me know.

Thanks

Last weekend bought an approved-used lexus 2014 GS 300h (41500 Miles on the clock). 

Firsy impression, while I was looking aroud the car - I have noticed, the vehicle was not buffed (while the dealer told me it will be), and when I mentioned it to him, he said, these scratches can not be buffed. 
Now I have been around vehicles enough, to know different. Anyways - I dropped the subject.

Secondly - Tyres. Almost worn to the marks....  I asked him about it - he started to give me some theories about how many mm should the tyre thread be and we should look at the milimeters, not the tyre markings. (Very strange....   I quit arguing). 

The week before I emailed him, that the vehicle had an advisory in the MOT records over the past 3 inspections, about the chip on the front windscreen. I asked them to fix it, and he said, they will replace the windscreen. So they did - the front windscreen is brand new. However, there was a heavy rain on Wednesday (only three days after I took posession of the vehicle) I have noticed, the Auto-Wipers function doesn't work. The indicator light is on, the wipers make single pass, when I turn the Auto function on, but the sensor doesn't work. 

The dealer says, the vehicle has 12 months full Lexus Warranty. Now they want me to take the vehicle back, leave it at the dealer I took it from (around 80 miles away), until they fix the issue, and they do not offer a courtesy car for me to go about my day. This only can be done during week day. 

Is all this sounds normal to you? Does anyone have similar experience with Lexus Dealers? 

Hi,

This is my first post but from my own personal experience, I refused to drive back 2 hours to and fro to the lexus dealership and they agreed to collect the car and gave me a 21 plate NX 300h courtesy car for the 2 days my car was in their workshop.

I purchased a 2015 RX 450h back in June and the air conditioning was blowing warm air.

Let the dealership collect the car when they can and request for a courtesy car. I believe you have 14 days to reject the car if you are not happy with the purchase or the whole dealer experience.

Hope you get it sorted soon.
