After my car showing March 1st into Bristol since mid November it has now back to the 3rd week in March. Bugger.

I will be worth the wait, my test drive showed it is an excellent car (or small SUV). That will be 54 weeks since my deposit.

The cargo boat inside the red square is bringing my Lexus UX. Its approaching the docks now.

One year and 2 days since my deposit. Hoping it will be on the road end of this week.

Looked at my car yesterday. Sonic white with rich cream leather with Premium Plus pack, very happy. Final specs only reached the dealers last week. A little disappointed that no 10 inch screen, F sport and Takumi only. Manual seats, electric seats only with tech and sound pack, no folding mirrors on lock, that’s F Sport and Takumi only. Does have the power hatch with the close sensor under the rear. And a nice textured leather finish to the top of the dash.

still covered in plastic bits and a waxed finish to the paintwork.

Anyway it is what it is and still very happy. PDI Monday, valet Tuesday morning and I will be driving away with it Tuesday afternoon. First one in Bristol.

Nice.

After just over a week I can say this is the best Lexus I have had, for smoothness and for being so quiet. 

I have Lexus’s for 12 years now 3 IS250 with the 6 cylinder engine which was a peach but you could watch the fuel gauge going down if you put your foot down to overtake. Then 2 IS300h which were very good but this UX is so much much better. Higher mpg, on Battery more, the only way it could be quieter is if it did not touch the road like a certain Delorien. You cannot hear the engine kick in when coming off Battery which you could in the IS.

Brilliant car.
