Lexus have released a video of the LS in Autumn Shimmer (Copper Brown in the UK) with cream leather interior. What do you think of the colour? Ive seen it on an RX and it looked horrid, seems to suit the LS much more.

Nearly forgot the mince pies as well seen as though christmas is coming.

If you have the space in the boot, a multi fuel stove, a 25kg bag of coal and some quick burning fire fuel would keep you warm in winter.

Probably but don't expect it to cost less than £300 for the part alone

de-icer, scraper and a telescopic shovel

Looks tiny - anything under the size of a 2p piece is repairable

Admiral and associated companies don't let you drive other vehicles. Not really a concern as dealer has insurance for the courtesy car anyway

Quite the contrary - most policies now state that they WONT cover you to drive another car, even third party sometimes.

It's a chain

Spark plug change on V6 is roughly £180-200. The 4 cylinders about £150 As far as I can tell, essential care and normal servicing are the same in terms of what they actually do. Some dealers will stamp the book and just write essential care under it. Others will just give a certificate to state it's been done

Not too sure - I think it looks more like a Skoda Yeti And its got Nissan Qashqai wheels The rear window design also looks lifted from the Qashqai. TBH I dont really like it - doesn't look great IMO, just another mini SUV.

I would suspect there's a bit more to it than just the increase in power from 467 to 471hp. Thats not enough to notice whatsoever and certainly wouldn't be a reason to test it on the track. Im half expecting them to put the car on a diet.

Agreed. There are some extremely silly ones where you just wonder what happened to cause that. A lot of problems seem to be caused by not doing the basics

I think Learners would certainly benefit from dashcam videos. Instead of that rubbish "click when you see a hazard" which is actually a skill you gain over years of driving, they should make them watch a dashcam video and answer some multiple choice questions on what went wrong. The point of my posted video is not to have a go at those involved but to highlight what does actually happen in real life and how it can be quite dangerous. That girl who walked out in front of the car, if the car was travelling at 30mph, she'd be on the bonnet. With the reversing car, there was a chance of collision and the Citroen swerved and may have caused a head on!

Yes, its been made bigger to accommodate larger phones. The old one couldn't fit larger phones in it

Selection of videos for those who may be interested - apologies in advance for the Safety on board a plane style narration and the funky music!

Id be checking to make sure the wheels were balanced, alignment was OK and Suspension for a start.

I do find his videos quite hilarious though. Seen his car pootling around Bradford sometimes as well.

Copy and post the whole youtube link with youtube.com in it. Otherwise it doesn't embed BMW driver was going at like 50mph down that road! Got some more footage in but itll take a while to make a compilation. Lets just say it involves a BMW, one that was marked for starters!

In terms of selling I've used all of them. Sold most cars using autotrader but recently my sons previous car was sold on ebay within 1 week And then I sold a MINI on Gumtree for asking price within 3 days

Nah no rants at all. It's my sons car and his videos. I've seen the original footage and he just says Oh ***** a few times or laughs Yh that's probably the Electric Dashcam Man lol

Let's see them!

Probably worth changing all 4 tyres and not just 2. How did you come to the conclusion that it was the fronts and not the backs? Low profile tyres are more likely to cause tramlining. One way to solve it is to check the load ratings, make sure its not overly high and certainly not XL rated as they can cause tramlining. Could potentially be a more serious issue ie suspension/bushes in upper suspension etc In terms of road noise from coarse tarmac - I have yet to find a vehicle in which it is exactly the same as smooth tarmac. The Lexus 4RX is pretty close however and I dont doubt that the new LS will be a game changer in the Lexus range for this.

Better than a BMW/Merc, I can tell you that much. I think its to do with the hybrid battery pack sitting over the rear wheels helping in terms of down pressure. If you look at most BMW's/Mercs, they barely have anything over the back wheels so they just spin out - unless you put a few 25kg bags of coal in the boot that is

Dont think you can on the NX with pan roof. It has no roof rails to attach to or even holes for them You'd need a rear bicycle holder
