I changed all my tyres to Michelin PS4S from the original super sports towards the end of last year & wished I’d done it sooner. Better all round & much quieter & smoother. It was between the PS4S & the Continental Sport Contacts 7’s at the time, both had great reviews, but decided on Michelins as great all round with better wear, rather than the better performance in the wet you get from the Continentals. I don’t push my car particularly hard, so was that was the decider for me. Others on here have made the move to the Continentals & are very happy with them, so I’m sure which ever tyre you choose from the latest crop will be an improvement over the older super sports.

Very nice & as others have said, love the wheels👍🏻

Well worth it though as it looks great👍🏻

A friend who lives locally in Sussex sent this to me. I’ve seen it on occasion when I’m down visiting, but hadn’t seen it for a while, so glad to see it’s still about looking very shiny as usual👍🏻😉

One of the advantages of a 2015 RCF that may offset the high road tax is the marginally higher power & torque over the later cars which had to comply with stricter emissions restrictions from Europe. Depends on your priorities 😉🤣

Yes I was also told that at my last service as well. Also worth remembering a Lexus warranty is still available to purchase from your dealer on a yearly basis for a further 5 years (I think) beyond the 10 year Relax period. Apparently the cover is similar to that of the old 2 year warranty.

A handy place to know by the sounds of it & thanks again for the info 👍🏻

@Littorio Hi Luciano, thanks very much for the info. I will definitely look into it & it’s not too far away which is a bonus 👍🏻

Nice, who did those If you don’t mind me asking? My diamond cuts will need doing at some point, but would like to keep them looking standard & wondered if I could get them redone with the original gun metal grey, but with the front coated silver to mimic the original polished finish. Wasn’t sure if this was possible until I saw your wheels!

@RCF5v8 Thanks for the info - will probably just get the dealer to sort it as that will be quicker I suspect. My car is pretty low mileage, so just changed the original tyres as I was concerned about rubber being beyond its best, even though there was plenty of tread left. Similar situation with my previous ISF, which was even lower mileage, so this is actually the first time I’ve had to change tyres in nearly 10 years on a Lexus.

Didn’t realise this as I have recently had 4 new tyres & 4 wheel alignment done by tyre specialist. I take it I need the dealer to sort this? - pity as the car was serviced on Saturday!

Thanks for posting the pics of the interior - wow looks stunning, love it👍🏻

Wow those costs really do make a replacement exhaust without the fake tips issue an even more sensible option now than it was back when I owned my ISF!!

Congratulations & welcome to the club. The car looks stunning!! Always been partial to red leather & must be the only one in the uk with that colour combo? Like to see some more pictures of the interior when you get the opportunity! They are a great car, so I’m sure you will have some fun drives a head 👍🏻

Problem with the original exhaust fake tips is they have a habit of falling off when the spot welds corrode, so if u do manage to find any, probably worth getting the welds re done. They are some £400 per corner new from Lexus as they also have a resonator cone assembly as well. There is a picture in one of the threads on here somewhere. When I had my ISF, losing exhaust tips was one of the few issues that came up occasionally and when faced with the replacement cost it made changing to the H&S system an attractive option when comparing the overall costs. if u wanted more sound it was a no brainer, so was popular!
