  1. Probably should of started with the other Lexus’s and ended up with the 460, have you had any of the others mentioned Tulpen?
  2. Thought that statement would get that response, just really like the lines of the ls400, don’t get me wrong I love the LS460, my wife drives as a daily, so going to get her an Alfard as a daily and then the LS460 can be my toy, then thinking of swapping for another Lexus sc430, ls400, ls430 not sure which one yet, any suggestions?
  3. The company that supplied to first owner are my neighbours and a really lovely bunch of guys, I’ll have to let them know about the car tomorrow. Beautiful car! I’m thinking of swapping my rather nice LS460 for a really clean 400, what say you guys?
  4. Hello sir, I purchased an LS460SE about 2weeks ago and can tell you that they’re a really special car indeed! I was lucky in the fact that my neighbours A short walk away are a local Toyota Lexus sales and repair, they had looked after the car for the last 10 years for an elderly gentleman and he had only clock up 20,000 miles in that time and serviced it every year, so the car has only done 39,000, it’s an awesome v8 and a pleasure to drive. I have put a Race-chip xlr throttle chip on, to improve lag and throttle response( beware of R+ mode) as the Ls becomes a real beast from the east! In Sport mode it’s really great, without the chip or in the neutral setting there is slight delay in the throttle or the feeling of having to press the throttle Quite hard for response. There is a bit of wind noise at high speed, but nothing to worry about if just cruising. I don’t think the control arms are an issue, probably the Americans doing to many donuts! I asked what oil they had used and they said the 5w30, so I think I’m going to get them to put the liqui moly 0w20 in with the ceratec ceramic coating, should work a bit better as the climate will allow a thinner oil. Mine has the 18 inch allows so not sure if I’m going to change for the 19inch alloys that the car your looking at has. The only other thing is I’m considering is a ever so slightly louder growl from the exhaust, I might be sounding like a boy racer but I’m really not! Just like the small tweaks to get a bigger smile as I drive the ss enterprise! One thing I will say Is that it’s not the filling up it’s the speed at which the fuel gauge goes down! But worth every penny me thinks! The Japanese really do make a masterpiece of a drive. Good luck with your purchase
  5. I believe they are cam chain! I think that’s why they take nearly 10 litres of oil!
  6. Installed a race chip xlr for the throttle😋the spaceship has warp drive!!! awesome bit of kit from this German company.
  7. Has anyone done an exhaust modification on a ls 460se? For better sound and bhp, did you have to re-map for Exhuasts pressure/ air fuel mix, air filter that sort of thing. Thanks in advance Devon
  8. Muffler delete, will it pass the mot and will it be to loud for normal driving?
  9. One last thing, would it be wrong to want a muffler delete and would it pass the mot?
  10. Thank guys, I think that the engineers have done enough to keep me happy, the gain only seams very small.
  11. I need some advice please, is it possible/a good thing to re-mapp my Lexus LS460SE and can anyone recommend an experience d company todo it?. Many thanks
