Buying a GS 450h

[Micholas]

So I’m actively looking for a low mile GS and have narrowed it down to a couple. What should I be looking for with these? I’ve owned an LS430 before which was super reliable but did still have things that were common to fail.. Mark Levinson subs and amps, radiators, window regulators etc. Is there anything I should look out for on the GS? I’m gonna pay strong money as I’m looking at sub 60k mile cars, but want to make sure I don’t have to do any work on it once bought. Any help appreciated.

What age?

What an idiot. I’m looking 2006/07 era.

Battery can be a ticking time bomb on the older cars from everything I've read here over the years.

Maybe someone will tell me I'm wrong.

I think a good sub 60k mile 2006/2007 GS450h will be a very hard find. I've been driving a 57 plate GS for 14 years and the only issues I've had are misting shocks at around 70k/80k (pricy and dealership supply only), water pump at 90k and a couple of TPMSs. No issues with traction Battery, but 12v Battery issues were a pain due to low mileage (after retiring). As for the 12v Battery I now do top up charge every 4/6 weeks.

I changed a leaking rad on mine.

Exhaust back box rusted off.

Sold mine three years ago. Since then it has had clean mot passes.
