Hi Bob is on the last post, on this thread🤙

Hi my road tax is £570 for a year as its a 2007 model, so I only use it 6 months of the year (garage queen) as it drops to £330. I have two other cars that keep me poor as well. But certain facelift models can be purchased with the cheaper road tax, 2005 models.
But when the sun is out and the top is down that's when owning a SC430 is well worth it 🤙

Hi
Thank you for your replies, it seems that there is little to offer at the moment, tyre wise to help prevent reversing scrapes...
I also have Continental 245/40/R18's Neil, on my SC430 and they are due to be replaced soon, so I might just have to carry on looking.
They unfortunately did not help with a very high kerb on one rear wheel😪...
The reviews, on plastic coloured rim protectors from customers are reasons why they should be avoided.
On another forum this was offered as a solution

Hi Peter have just received my order from China of a custom dash cover from...
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B088626CDL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
First for £25 it was good material," fit" it was 2inches too long, also trimmed, where it fits along the front touching glass! I notified them that it was for a SC430 on the order and the e-mail back
So trimmed the drivers side and also removed front segment around blowers.I think it will be ok for the job now seemed to cut out any reflected glare as I have just road tested it!

Hi Just looking into a similar problem of juddering at 70mph when breaking, could be ABS sensor worn or reluctor ring wear?
See this thread from Lexus-World https://forum.lexusownersclub.com/threads/abs-sensor-advice.2695/

Hi Peter
Interested in this topic as to what the spare wheel looks like now and the cover you have made for the dash, what it looks like on!
some pics please!

Hi Ron
The sidewalls show a lot of cracking of rubber, that comes with age and sun damage, they look quite dangerous🤔
I think you have a case for replacement tyres with that and only 3mm of tread!

The problem is now a lot of road debris/spray will collect under the rear area of extreme large gaps😮!
Hope they sort it out for you!

Sounds positively intriguing.....'quite' well???????
Anyway, until I'm approved - or disapproved - it's moot

Many owners have had great results with these guys.

Perfect colour match to the original in my car but as explained above the seat colour changes with age and sunlight etc. If you buy enough to do all of the upholstery, take plenty of time and care in the process and it's possible to get excellent results.
I have used this product and have had great results, if you want a perfect match cut a small piece from under the seat and send it too them!

Maybe get a 2nd quote from a trusted, local specialist?
Lexus will replace, someone else might 'fix' it?
Thanks for the reply Piers!
Can any one in Cardiff recommend a local specialist?
