New owner - GS450h 2008

[Odysseus]

I'm now the very proud owner of a 2008 Lexus GS450h with around 59,000 miles on the clock.  I've been hankering after one of these for quite a while (see this post in January)

The one I've bought is in velvet black with ivory leather, and all the SE-L toys including ACC/PCS and a sunroof.  I bought it from Lexus Edgware Road, so have a full warranty which hopefully I won't need to use, but is nice peace of mind.

Admittedly I've driven less than 100 miles so far but I was highly impressed with the 36.8 mpg I achieved driving back up the A1 to Cambridgeshire.  

I have some immediate questions concerning how to switch the clock to 24 hours format and why on earth it doesn't have a sunglasses holder which I assume are better addressed in the proper forum, but I wanted to say hello all the same.

Pictures of the car here...

 

Looking forward to contributing here, thanks for looking.

Lovely looking car you got there Andrew

Jemca Edgware Road used to be my local dealer, and I had nothing but good service from them, so hopefully they treated you well.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on sourcing yourself a very nice car (I may be somewhat biased). It's low mileage for its age, how does the MOT history look?

I recently tweaked my clock whilst on the continent. I'll mull it over and let you know how to flip to a 24hr format.

Meanwhile enjoy the ride and power under foot.

Hmmm, I had a look at my clock setting and within the Info button I see an Adjust Clock option top right. 

However mine doesn't give an option to change the display between 12/24hr.

I can't see the option in the manual either.

Hello and Welcome to the forum!

If you have any intentions of completing any maintenance, modification or just general enthusiast type jobs on the Lexus now seems like the ideal time to start a thread on the Brand New build thread section to share you ideals and photos and hopefully get a few ideas and tips along the way.
