Buying a LS460 SEL in the UK.

[Nathanmay]

Good afternoon group. 

I AM BASED IN LONDON ENGLAND

I am new to Lexus  ownership and would like some advice on buying a LS460. It is the long wheelbase model and has every possible extra with 144.000 on the clock. I intend having a full AA examination of the car. What do you guys think? Are parts for it easily available? Are they mega expensive? Do cambelts need changing? THANKS EVERYONE!

Nathan welcome to this Forum

Theres lots of info on the Ls460 to be searched here

It’s a relatively rare car  The V8  4.6ltr engine and drivetrain is beyond reproach 

Change the radiator every 100k miles as preventative maintenance to protect the gearbox …… that’s essential ! 

Im reading the suspension set-ups are expensive to replace but have good longevity ……. there’s plenty of advice to search but I’m sure Members here will be forthcoming with useful advice and guidance 

Hopefully your specific car will have good Lexus Service History and a fresh MOT 

Ive never had other than the Ls400 …… a different animal but of supreme quality 

Your AA inspection should be thorough …… might they be able to sell you some sort of warranty too ? 
 

Others here with specific knowledge will pop up soon I’m sure
