I have just had this message back from my dealer after I queried the price protection:

"I just wanted to give you a quick email to touch base with you regarding the delivery of your vehicle. At the moment the ETA is for the middle of October which is when the vehicle should arrive with us on site providing it is allocated a build slot in the next few months. Obviously I understand this is still a little while away and a fluid situation but I will endeavour to keep you updated. 

Regarding the pricing and if the vehicle is price protected or not I am still trying to get to the bottom of this to give a definitive answer. As soon as I can find out some solid concrete information from Lexus I shall let you know either way."

 So it appears the price protection is once again not assured, but at least I have been told it will be under the £40,000 threshold, JUST. I now know the delivery is in the middle of October rather than just October. If there is no price protection, then I do not know what to do as I hate being told initially it was, so I may just cancel. I have just done a search on Car Wow and I have found Sidcup Lexus was doing it at a saving of £5,897 (14.8%) but a delivery of March 2023, which is a lot longer than my deal, but a lot cheaper.

That was my worry , I’ve just cancelled mine didn’t experience very much amazing with my Lexus stealer 🙈😂👍

Apologies , i wondered if the hybrid drive set up in the Es was noticeably different given the Es is a newer model.

Anyone moved from Nx300h to Es300h comparisons welcome ?

My end of July delivery date has been changed to mid-September and they said that several that were ordered at a similar time to mine (Dec 2021) were moved out to October...

Mine was also ordered Dec 21 heard nothing from my dealer Lexus Coventry.

going to be a long wait me thinks , fingers crossed we don’t get another price rise !!

If there is another price increase before I take delivery, now currently to be October and it goes over the threshold I will just cancel.

Yes my thoughts as well , one off the main reasons I ordered the Es was because it was under the higher rate tax threshold .

Chris, I'm a little confused, if you placed an order (and presumably paid a deposit) on 19/12/21 wouldn't this guarantee you getting the car at the agreed price at the time of the order? Or am I missing something here? 

That’s correct , price is held at December price but I am LED to believe from dealer Ved is worked out at time of registration which could be July.

£500 car tax could be a deal breaker 🙈

I think the list is the P11D value, so you can deduct the VED and First Registration Fee from the OTR price.

Just phoned my dealer car ordered 19/12/21 with sonic paint and protection pack delivery due July , told me mine coming in £40 below higher tax rate. Just hope no more price increases.

Probably a stupid question 🙈,can you get apple car play to work wireless ???

Just wondering what everyone is using to clean these type of seats ??
