Currently own a 2014 IS300h Luxury which I bought new. Lovely car but missing many of the electric toys I'm now longing for. So, today, I put a deposit down for a Lexus dealer used '64' plate GS F Sport - 300h. Black with black interior, wheels powder coated black and all chrome work wrapped in black. Definitely stands out. Hope to pick up next week. Is there anything I need to know about the GS as a standout features / issues? It certainly feels a small step up from the IS in terms of quality. Cheers Peter

Bump - down to £200. C'mon - RC15 LEX anyone?

Down to £250 now. Somebody must fancy it. :) RC15 LEX

I've picked up a feint scratch across the windscreen courtesy of the nearside wiper. I've tried removing it using glass polish to no avail. Does anyone have any experience of removing a fine, albeit quite long, scratch across the glass? I have an assortment of paintwork swirl removers such as Meguiars Scratch-X 2.0 and Meguiars Ultimate Compound but I'm not sure if they would be suitable on glass. Any suggestions welcomed. Cheers Peter

In summary, I bought RC15 LEX from the DVLA in December 2014 with a view to buying an RC300h this summer. Things have changed so I will probably be sticking with the IS300h until probably this time next year. I paid £399 for the plate but I'm willing to sell for £350 including the transfer amount - assuming it's no more than £25 otherwise I'll have to reconsider the £350 asking price. Cheers Peter

Yes, I was hovering on the DVLA site from 08:00 :) I was only hoping for a 300h but your RC F will be awesome. You'll be fighting off the crowds wanting a look / ride / photo. Can't say an M4 or RS5 would get a second glance off anybody. Sooooooo jealous :) :)

Thanks, that makes sense. So I just need to find a buyer of the registration, fill in section 2 with the buyers details and send the document off to the DVLA. Might have to try the RC forum nearer to March to see if RC15 LEX appeals to anyone.

Hi and a happy New Year to everyone. I bought, in December 2014, a '15' plate number from the DVLA website that would suit a Lexus RC perfectly, with a view to myself buying an RC300h sometime in the '15' region, i.e. March to August 2015. Circumstances have changed a little and a coupe may not be suitable just yet so I'm either going to stick with my IS300h or look at a GS. I know there is information on the DVLA site but I wanted to see if anyone here has any first hand experience in how to transfer a number plate allocated to me to a new user. Obviously, the number plate hasn't been allocated to a vehicle, just me. Thanks for any help. Peter
