  1. if it's passed the MOT then it will be ok and the police will have to accept that official status ( surely ? ) ....... otherwise the police are chasing a red herring up the greasy pole and WASTING POLICE TIME .............. which is possibly a Criminal Offence in itself ? and if they catch the red herring they can eat it no doubt .... provided they have the respective Licence from DEFRA ? to catch fish Malc
  2. welcome to the Forum tiago . someone with knowledge of air struts on a Ls400 will come to your assistance quite soon . it's quite rare and unusual I've always had conventional set-ups and the springs do sometimes crack and need replacing Air sometimes causes issues and can be expensive to fix but at 50k miles, well, that's a very low mileage for a Ls400 BUT at 24 years old who knows what age related issues can appear " out of the blue " someone will be along soon I'm sure to give you sound advice Best wishes Malc
  3. just take care no errant branches and twigs drop from above eh ! 😉 Malc
  4. did you pinch some piccys from the latest Fred Olsen cruise brochure ............ lovely trip ... the Italian Dolomites should be good too if you get that side of Italy in 2023 Malc
  5. I'm thinking the Venezuelan societal issues right now may require you to drive around in some armour plated protection too Malc
  6. I'd think to be round their place and sort them out .... compasionately of course, offer them spiritual guidance as I sent them to the hospital to have their broken legs healed having tried to save them from falling ( and failed ) down that adjacent lift shaft sorry to hear of this, there's some rogues and nutters about, as ever, and they need to be curtailed in their efforts to f--ck with people's lives Malc
  7. you read the google finance news then too ?? Malc
  8. Asda Rainham Kent yesterday E10 173.7p .. as i was driving past Malc
  9. gentlemen gentlemen gentlemen ... can we rework our future thoughts to the heading of the Forum Post please FUEL PANIC the above circular arguments are boringly tiresome to most readers methinks ...... yawn please just, between yourselves, agree to differ ! Malc
  10. and I've too got one gone again . and after only 27 years too .......... Malc
  11. thought I'd just update here a little ........... since this above post ..... actually recruited one brilliant guy who can't find a more local better role . and he def can't work from home, too many kids etc ........ and he lives a 40km 2.5hr drive from my office . even leaving finishing work at 11.30 at night it's still a 2.5hr drive home for him As some of you might know, in Delhi delivery trucks are banned until ( I think ) 10.30pm at nighttime to avoid the car congestion .. creates it's own mayhem . and yes, a 40km drive in Delhi at any time is a usual nightmmare Malc
  12. be sensible now please 😉 ................... a mobile phone in them there dark ages was the size of a brickwall and as heavy Malc
  13. robusta coffee beans or not, ... in the freebie Main Dealer and others " freebie " coffees globally ....... far too complex a Q to answer I'm afraid, not even the accountants will know, well, especially them coz they really often don't have a clue as to the true meaning of many of the figures thay conjure up ..... ask any accountant, he will tell you the truth in that ! Malc
  14. ask Alexa Malc
  15. unless the mark-up from the garage doing the job is multi times that cost just for the parts ........... be interested to understand what Lexus main dealer would charge ..... if indeed they would be prepared to even do the job for their customer I think this is a rhetorical Q . I doubt a main dealer would want to get involved, just pass it out to their local " provider " and add £200 on top for their commission possibly Malc
  16. I s'pose now we're out of the EU there might be some stranger issues too Might be an opportunity for some enterprising car sales person to make a name for themselves .... even if it's the headlines in Prisoners Gazette Weekly Malc
  17. China holds more US$ than even the USA outside of ..... the USA, let alone other holders of the greenbacks .. the other " western " currencies are just " nice to know " nah.......... the banks won't be able to rip-off holidaymakers and the like with excessive exchange rate profits .... c'mon, it's a huge source of income for someone Malc
  18. why go thru' the hassle of import ? just drive it in the UK maybe ? I'm sure insurers will cotton on to find methodolgy to insure your car here ok Malc
  19. well, there you have summed up very simply what our politicians are all about ( in general ) ........... pretty stupid I was reading that Germany has said quite emphatically that they will not abide by the EU rules on banning petrol / diesel new sales from 2030 So we go to Germany, buy our brand new cars and simply drive them in the UK ..... ok ? Malc
  20. Oh for the joy of running an older reliable well serviced Lexus . like mine, where annual servicing costs are but a likely smidgen of those indicated They're simply taking the peeee with a bigun ... P that is Malc
  21. speedy recovery to you Mike ............... thinking of the mellow miles in your new steed might help Best Wishes Malc
  22. it's actually 80.1 ltrs tank and i find there's about 100 miles left in her when the orange light pops on Malc
  23. not really at all . just an old fashioned 2 bed house in a Kentish High Street backing onto the Town Quay and many houses around me Grade11 Listed but for some reason, thankfully, mine escaped that stigma .... they weren't Listed when Nelson lived along from me I'll warrant Malc
  24. James, notwithstanding all your codes stuff just tell us how it is now: is she driving well with good accelleration and power in PWR mode especially ? Has she had a good hard blow-out along the motorway, uphills too ? Is she performing well generally ? Malc
  25. Tom hi ........ maybe ask Steve 2006 for some thoughts . he's a Mod on here with HUGE experience of these cars BUT you cannot directly ask a Mod it seems . so wait a little and I'm sure he'll pop in and take a look at this post BTW I have absolutely no idea how to help you ........ when the engine won't start and it's just a " clicking " sound then that used to be a tell tale sign that the starter motor was playing-up Battery and electrics in a 23 year old car can be troublesome sadly Malc
