Thanks, Lexus Online were not able to confirm if it is the Pioneer just "Audio System with 10 Speakers" so I will just have to wait as I cannot access the car's multimedia manual yet. Quietly confident it'll be good though!

Thanks, so it won't be a Pioneer?

Excellent, thanks a lot. I suspect the Lexus' superior insulation helps enhance the acoustics. Looking forward to playing my .flac files and also taking my dad for a spin so he can listen to some classical music.

I've read conflicting things about the sound quality. Is it a Pioneer as I've noted in some Autotrader listings? I kinda wish I'd gone for the ML, but it was out of my price range unfortunately.

Thanks, all, very much for your detailed responses. She arrived in Portsbury yesterday according to the maritime tracking site I was logging into every few hours! Now I just need to research the most cost-effective way of how to travel down to Lincoln from Aberdeen.

That's good to hear, thanks. I plan on keeping the car for over twenty years that's all, and I was of the opinion that even if the chassis was behind plastic panels it could eventually corrode, and where I live that rate of corrosion can occur very fast.

Agreed, the gun-metal look great. I will upgrade mine to larger rims but only ten years from when I collect the car.

A local specialist will carry out the job. According to them they will powerwash and mask everything up. "...underbody stone chip protection coating, its essentially a bit like rubber...." £500 once-only application. Three days turnaround.

I'll ask, thanks for the replies.

Thanks, so I should get a Lexus dealership to fit? Would that then ensure continued warranty of all parts?

Thanks, would it invalidate the warranty due to the wheels' sensors? I don't actually do many miles annually, and I'm coming from a 19-year-old car!

I'm considering upgrading the factory-fitted 18" alloys to black and bigger (19" or 20"). I think it'll look great. Does anyone have any advice on this please? I haven't picked the car up yet.

Interesting. Why not larger than 18"s? I prefer black (for looks and keeping clean) and think they look great on a white car, but that's merely my opinion. I'm considering upgrading my wheels, but can't really justify the additional cost.

Providing it doesn't end up at the bottom of the Red Sea, I'm about to become the proud owner of my first Lexus - a brand new NX 350h. I live in a coastal city in north Scotland so they tend to put a fair bit of salt and grit on the roads from October to April, therefore, I'm thinking of protecting the vehicle's underside. Does anyone have any advice on undercoating the car as I plan on keeping it many many years?

Nice one. Thanks a lot!
