Interesting, I'd been told both, independent dealer said it was, Lexus dealership said it wasn't! Anyways as long as the car is solid then it's all good

Completion of a service with no raised issues gives you an additional year of warranty I believe. So you don't need a full Lexus SH but you need a service to them activate the warranty I believe. I think I'm right in saying it's non transferable so if it was serviced before purchase you need to service it yourself to get the warranty. Or that's what I've been told.

Mmm a red sport with only 6000 miles on for 55k not bad!

Indeed, I've a pet hatred of cars that aren't prepared or with clear issues at this price point. I know why garages don't but it's the wrong image. Cosmetic issues perhaps but not things like handles and seats, not on a car that's been for sale for 6 months plus where the issues could have been dealt with under warranty anyways. I think 47 is still generous for that one!

Well little confession, I did go and see that yellow one a few months back and offered them 47 and they flat out refused to go below 49,500 (which they offered me the moment I called) thing is is had quite a few issues, drivers seat was "loose" ie you could noticeably rock it back and forwards with light pressure. The drivers handle was indeed broken and only half popped out. There was a whistling noise at speed from the drivers side (possibly the handle not retracted or something odd) All of these things were of course repairable under warranty but their general attitude was it was an amazing car and the warm weather would bring out buyers. Anyways with no movement on the price, a huge milage and a list of issues I bid them good luck.

Looks like the yellow one has gone (or given up!) Anyone here?

Indeed, given the glacial price reductions they don't seem to eager to shift it tho. 43 would do nicely, 45 tops. Does the driver door handle look slightly off? It's often half popped out in the photos vs the passenger. How do the door handles hold up? I had a BMW that ended up needing 3 new handles at £500 each (luckily under warranty) so modern fancy door handles always make me look carefully!

100% if it was 2-3K less price wise it would balance out, essentially the 2017 ones will all be out of their 10 year warranty by the time you choose to sell the car again so future buyers will perhaps be slightly wary. It's also bonkers that it's more than double the mileage of any other car and it's not even the cheapest example we've seen in the past 6 months. If you pop the reg into autotrader as a private sale it reckons you should be asking for 42k, clearly a seller has some mark up but the gulf there seems a bit large. I assume as well 12 months of sitting on forecourts isn't going to be great. Must be due a service after 12 months if nothing else!

I am somewhat tempted, you see on US groups people with 2-3 year old cars with similar mileage. but there's got to be an offset in price, why take a car with double the mileage to save 1-2K?

Look like it got removed and it's back with a healthy mark-up. I wonder if they had a flood of interest and decided to do the honourable thing and pretend they got the price wrong.

Whoever at the dealership eventually shifts that yellow one should get some sort of award, I think it's been on a year now?

Indeed and it's QUITE a bit cheaper as well still being a sport plus. Shall await the real photos 😄

Good news guys, the unsellable Yellow LC is now £100 cheaper...

Looks like that convertible has gone up to 75k, someone put the wrong price in!

You don't have to enter the topic do you? I'll buy one when I find the right one! I've got space for it now anyways after selling one of the other cars!
