Lexus Parts Dept

I phoned Lexus in Bolton today to order a new rear calliper. I was surprised that they did non Lexus parts for £89 apiece, so I decided to order a pair.

I was about to give the guy my card number, when he said, just pay when you pick them up. I said I'd have to have them delivered as my car was in pieces and it's an 80 mile round trip from Blackpool.

Guess what, they don't deliver. Can you believe it. I spoke to the manager and he says he'll try to get some to me but can't promise.

What sort of business is this, do other Lexus dealers not deliver?

I'm beginning to regret buying a Lexus.

If you go to a website called lexusdirect .com they deliver but it may cost a little extra

Just had a call from Lexus Bolton

They're on the way with my calipers. 80 mile round trip, you can't fault it. :)

£179 for the pair delivered. Well done Lexus Bolton.

Great news. Are they genuine Toyota parts? i.e. are those the boxes the calipers came in? If so can you tell us the part no. as that's a hell of a saving you've made

Hope you aren't regretting buying a Lexus now :)

Fitted and working. Job sorted. :)

[Connoisseur]

Nice one ;)

Mods - worth a sticky on the GS forums? These OEM parts represent a saving for members on a set of rear calipers of around £140..

I'm getting happier by the day. I may even change my profile pic to one with me wearing a Lexus hat. :)
