  1. My 400h has front and rear sensors fitted. I have a single button for the front sensors only and it is situated below the gear lever and is illuminated green when on.
  2. Really like that interior combination.
  3. What is the green band on the rear number plate?
  4. Good find. Interesting to see if thefts now go down around London.
  5. My estimate was too low. However, it is a private sale with no warranty so that needs to be taken into consideration. On the face of it it looks well worth considering.
  6. I was basing my assessment on what is on offer on AutoTrader at present. A car is worth the amount someone is prepared to pay.
  7. Too expensive - £3000 - £3700 max depending on condition.
  8. If you allow someone to test drive your car without checking they have a license AND insurance you are committing an offense. As Mike says above, you take a calculated risk even if the above is observed. If they prang the car then you will almost certainly be on third party insurance and lose the value of the vehicle you are selling. I have sold a few cars privately and most of the transactions have run smoothly. Be very aware if more than two people turn up to view the car. Trade-in values at garages are on the low side so you need to weigh up the advantages (more money) with the possible disadvantages (Test pilots, who have no intention of buying the car - time wasters). Hassle free option is to trade-in. Some potential buyers are very nice to deal with but you must expect the pain in the ar$e buyer who just wants a bargain by trying to pick as many faults as possible. If you are an honest seller, then list all the faults you know of and show the potential purchaser. Be very wary of cash. Someone I knew accepted cash and after the purchaser left the hundred pound bundles were short. Also be aware of counterfeit money being handed over. Bank transfer, as Mike suggests, is usually instant and can be verified if you have internet banking. It all sounds very scary but you need to be made aware of what can happen. Has anyone on the forum actually sold their car to Webuyanycar.com or similar? Your experience would be helpful if you are willing to share, as Herbie did with his Lexus purchase. Just my thoughts, others may add more.
  9. Start it would be my first option!
  10. I just LOVE that colour combination! It gives me the feeling of summer!
  11. Had to Google that! Thought it might be to do with the Kama Sutra!
  12. I know couples who are very similar - I find it very strange. I wonder if they had their wedding vows changed from: "For richer or poorer!" adding .. Excluding my bank account!
  13. I did not want to appear rude I was just interested if you were happy with the trade-in. I have just had a sneak peek at the Lexus website and saw the Mesa red one! What a lovely car Herbs! That is a beauty! ENJOY!
  14. That is a lovely colour combination! Congratulations! I don't want to ask how much but were you happy with the trade-in value they gave you for your RX? Model? Sport? Luxury?
  15. That is interesting as I have a vibration around 80mph. Only achieved that speed once (on a test track of course!) since I got the car. Not through the steering but through the seat. My tyres are 5 years old, so possibly that could be the issue also. The four figure age code on the tyres give it 2016. There is grazing on the rear tyre walls so I will change them. The car seems to have done approximately 15,000 miles on these tyres.
  16. Do you have a similar PDF for the RX450h series 3 Colin? I have searched the forum but can't find a link. Thanks
  17. They are one of the best looking cars ever made, in my humble opinion.
  18. Excellent! Who will drive it from the dealers? Photos! Photos! Photos! No Photo? You didn't pick it up!
