You must feel like King of the Road driving that.

Bet it's not too bad driving that big lorry as well.

[mr2lad]

when I'm behind either steering wheel I OWN THE ROAD (or I like to believe I do)

[Bluesman]

I would love to drive a truck of that size. Mike.

Bet your not happy stuck behind a truck doing 60 mph when your behind the wheel of the lexus😡

[Spacewagon52]

I bet the Lexus was cheaper to buy!

[Scribe]

Isn't that just the best looking LS ever made?

[mr2lad]

I'm currently parked in a lay-by 10miles from Brighton on A23 after doing a delivery into Enfield London, and on my journey down here I saw 1 yes only 1 Lexus (rx450) on a 440mile drive .... Shocking

[mr2lad]

I bet the Lexus was cheaper to buy!

I believe the unit cost around 65k and fridge trailer about 40k boss bought 6 new units and 8 new trailers this year....and I got a 50p a hour pay rise lol

New LS600 with all the toys £102k. New tractor unit and trailer £105k. Not a lot cheaper, but you've won your bet.

I'm only a few miles away in Brighton but you won't see my LS today because it's tucked up inside my garage. I recently did a 460-mile trip to Suffolk and didn't see a single LS; on Sunday I did a 27-mile trip to Crowborough and saw a green and silver Mk.3 LS400 and waved at it but didn't get a 'reply'. It's much the same with my old Accord Coupe - they're very rare these days. I like having such unusual cars.

His fuel consumption will drop pleasurably if he did. Might not be a bad idea? Reduced speed, reduced wind resistance. reduced stress (Graham is a considerate driver?). And you can listen to your favourite music in a relaxed and calm atmosphere!

I`m down in Eastbourne during the weekend of 19-22 November and will wave to you Scribe and all LS motors, just like I (we) all did when we had VW Beetles and AA/RAC badges !

im always on the look out for LS or GS vehicles but hardly ever seen one

That really surprised me - thought the truck would be much more than that!

Lexus is still the better buy though!

[Spacewagon52]

Just come back from a trip (not in the Lexus) to Bristol and only saw one LS - LS430!

[Bluesman]

I'm not too long back from a 4500 mile round trip from Scotland to Spain and France and likewise didn't see one LS.

Alright don't rub it in. Lucky devil. Mike.

And I am currently in Spain Mike, having driven down (albeit in the Merc) and arrived on 8th Sept. Not seen an Ls either but have seen the occasional RX. I used to see an immaculate UK Reg Light Green LS with Goldish trims around Velez Malaga.

I start back on Friday 13th November and will maintain my watch!

With apologies to Mike Bluesman!!!

Saw an NX 300h parking in my local Sainsbury car park .............. not unusual you might think but this had French number plates. It was parking on electric - very quiet.

You can go off people John. You enjoy every moment of it cause this life ain't a rehearsal. Safe journeys. Mike.

Thanks Mike. I certainly did not mean to cause offence to anyone.

I worked for 42 years to buy this ticket to anywhere and I have been told many times that it is a one way ticket and I must therefore look out of the windows as much as I can. I must smell the flowers and feel the breeze and give my experiences freely.

As do you and the other Members of this wonderful Forum.

And when I get home, there is a GS450h waiting to be reunited with me (Solar powered charger permitting!)

I saw a Left Hand Drive Gold GS 400 (Mark 2?) in Torre del Mar this morning on Spanish plates. I do not think that the GS400 was imported to UK.
