  1. I believe it is Chain. Look c at HJ CAR REVIEWS FOR REPORTED FAULTS https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/lexus/ls-600h-2006/ AND https://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/lexus/ls460-2006/
  2. Hi Shafiq. The purchase of a £5000 LS can be a MAJOR MONEY PIT. One can however seek to minimise one`s exposure to the risk by (in so far as one can) * Ensuring that the vehicle has a documented full service history * Checking the vehicle`s MOT history using the DVLA website *Scrutinising this website
  3. Enjoy the car David. You are a fortunate man to have the opportunity to drive that. Oh, and lest I forget.....do NOT pack any Kryptonite in your luggage !!
  4. HJ on German quality today Check the good/bad sections for every model in http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar and you will see that German makes and models generate the highest number of complaints. VW Golfs feature strongly, yet Brits still convince themselves that they are buying German quality. and Honda offers the CR-V with its clever i-MMD hybrid system, explained here: /road-tests/honda/honda-cr-v-hybrid-2019-road-test/ There will be a new Jazz at the beginning of next year also with the i-MMD system and possibly (but not definitely) an HR-V i-MMD. There is also a new Toyota Yaris hybrid on the way. Generally, Toyota's self-charging hybrid systems have proven to be the most robust, with Prius taxis reaching 400,000 miles with little trouble and very low maintenance costs, largely due to their planetary epicyclic CVT transmissions. I have just driven 650 miles in the new Toyota Camry hybrid (a big car) and averaged 54.7mpg.
  5. Unless you are a Politician David, replace means replace. I would send a formal complaint by email to Lexus GB Customer Services and copy it to the Lexus Dealer who does not know the meaning of replace.
  6. Hi John and welcome. Do you REALLY need to update? My discs in my Merc are 20 plus years old and navigate me successfully twice annually from UK to Spain. I am just asking the necessary question.
  7. All true Vlad, but to balance the equation; Lexus offer reduced cost servicing for older vehicles. Essential Care for vehicles over 5 years old. This includes a small number of MOT`s and a free Hybrid Health Check. A Service Contract so one can pay monthly.This is interest free and a fixed monthly cost and preserves the Lexus Extended Warranty. One pays one`s money and makes one`s choice.
  8. Are you buying from Lexus Dealer Another motor dealer, or a private seller?
  9. https://inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/cars/petrol-pump-labels-changed-what-you-need-to-know-578070
  10. That is certainly my reading and understanding.
  11. I`ve never noticed my 2010 GS450h rolling backwards on any slope. I do not have any of Hill Start or Assist. I shall have to try that when I return home.
  12. Welcome Shafiq. You have a GS already? So, you need another 5 seater.?.......GS, RX, LS.........SUPER CHEAP DOES NOT= TROUBLE FREE!
  13. Indeed, she`s a fine looking lass.Just don`t forget Ron`s real Yorkshire Ale Richie and please pass on our good wishes.
  14. First to read will make the entry then under "IN HJ TODAY"
  15. Yes, Mark, I found Phil to be less than forthcoming intially but have now built up a satisfactory rapport with him. I believe that he has now moved into another position in the Main Building. Have you met Richard Clapham at Liverpool as I found him to be excellent when dealing with him.
  16. Lexus Chester and Tom in particular are outstanding.
  17. A wonderful response from Lexus, Peter. Difficult to imagine Audi, BMW or Mercedes acting like this. Which Lexus Dealer in Cheshire did you use to pursue the Warranty claim?
  18. We could make this(from HJ)? A REGULAR POST Jeff/ I see that he is now driving a Camry !!
  19. My youngest daughter had a brand new UK from Lexus Gatwick recently. A crap handover.I had to ask Lexus Chester to do it properly when she brought her new UX to show me.
  20. Send an email of complaint to Lexus G.B. re the official Dealers who are misrepresenting the vehicles and to the Advertising Standards Authority re the non --official Dealers?
  21. For the avoidance of doubt or misunderstanding.........I had no intention of offending anyone and immediately withdrew my contribution when it was queried by Ian. Ian accepted my apology and he deemed the matter closed. The matter remains closed.
  22. Lexus.FR suggests to me that the luxury VERSION IS THE TOP SPEC.
  23. Premium is top UK spec, so whichever is the most expensive French spec ?
  24. Very sorry Ian I had no wish to offend you.I built up a lot of respect for your contributions on the MB Forum. I will withdraw the remark as you have clearly received it in a manner which I had not intended. Best wishes.
