I don't see why that shouldn't work. I believe from the manuals I reviewed there much of the loom is common between ML and non ML. Also the plugs on both amps are the same so you should just need to disconnect it. I did not have any problems with it disconnected.

Yes and given my reason for creating this thread in the first place it would seem logical to conclude - I nearly put it up with a Motorway auction but that got put on hold due the DVLA reg transfer so I made various enquiries around the dealers and some non-dealers. My local dealer never came back to me, most of the others did but you will find the offers are inconsistent. I took a fair and not unreasonable offer and probably about near the highest trade offer from a buyer for Listers who have some Lexus dealerships - in fact they were one of the first I spoke to and their buyer was extremely professional, fair and was happy to wait for the reg to come back, was happy to accept it with 3weeks MOT said they would send an appraiser who was equally as professional, didn't say a word as I rambled on when they came to check the car and then confirmed yes it was sound - it pretty much sailed through with flying colours and was collected last week. I could have waited an maybe eeeked out an extra 1000-1500, but at what expense who knows.

I am selling my valve controller if anyone is interested please PM me Ben

Possibly - I think you would be better of buying the controller given its a couple of hundred. That gives you controllable and preset options to control the valves at a touch of a button and no connectors are left disconnected.

Hi All Before I create a new thread I thought I'd try resurrecting this one to sell my LC Exhaust Valve controller - it is the newer configurable item. Has been fitted to my own LC which was pre GPF so very noticeable but either way even on post GPF cars will be a noticeable change. Will take £200 all in. Plug and Play and doesn't take long to fit. PM me if you are interested.

@BrettMRC You reminded me there were some nice photos I put up there!

Ad is listed in the for sale section now - realistically priced for anyone who wants to get into an LC at 39995

Well it would be up if I could put the plate on retention online...

Its up on Motorway now - Ill put an ad on this forums for sale board too.

@HM48 - No it isnt. Most of the white I see are roadsters. Once I get an hours I will grab some new photos, here are some from last year and also a few from when I picked it up

I am going to try Motorway - I haven't done any photos yet. re. Redline - actually I contacted one of their nearby competitors yesterday who recently sold had a LC as they are not far from me and given the conversation discussing WBAC estimate vs motorway vs market and that I was realistic I thought we were on to something till they sent me a text last night offering around the same price as WBAC and for which they had already said was too low! They pretty much said they would put a car up like this at the 43k mark. I should know better that its always like this regardless of the car really.

You are right - although at least the LC might attract a different buyer. When I sold my C63 in 2021 - the experience was actually in the end positive however I was so cautious the buyer began to get frustrated with me! Mind you he said he was coming with his pregnant wife - when I met them in a supermarket car park his mate got out which didn't help. I wouldn't let both of them in the car when I went for the drive and only I was driving! I took photos of both their licences and questioned everything ! lol I wasnt even keen on them coming back to the house to get the V5. I remember the guy saying I drove the C63 so nicely compared to all his other experiences when looking! The amount of looks we got at the back of the car park too - the guys were middle eastern - I was there with the C63 looking decidedly anxious - it must have looked like some deal going down! The one thing they were reluctant on - confirming the mileage to DVLA online during the ownership switchover - I dont know why but there you go.

I really feel that Lexus Relax warranty should benefit used sales better including private sales but I very rarely see private sales up and none of the trade ads state "remainder of 10 year warranty". I also wonder if the potential LC buyer regardless of peace of mind of Lexus Relax prefers a non-private sale process which is a shame but then maybe now they are getting to ~40k we will see new buyers coming in - possibly willing to consider private sales.

They are all > 42k.

Hey Brett I am looking at replacing it - I have always avoided PX because the values are always so low but I had been considering it this time for convenience. I contacted Lexus Leeds as they have some history of the car and me so will see if they come back with. You get crazy low valuations on WBAC etc but retail prices are all above 40k right now - I think the lowest is 42 at the moment. Maybe I just need to give the Carwow/motorway a shot...
