Unloved ls430
Chasdad replied to Chasdad's topic in LS 400 / Lexus LS 430 / Lexus LS 460 / Lexus 600h / Lexus 500h Club
After speaking to the husband. It appears hes a bit of a dreamer. Hes idea is to get it back on the rd and to rent it out. So it looks like it'll sit there until its completely worthless -

Ive mentioned it to his wife and dropped some not so subtle hints. Like handing a bucket for her to wash it. Fell on death ears. Going back after xmas -

They bought a toyota hybrid suv thing. Treat it terribly though. Loading it with rubbish for the tip. The more i know of the husband the more i think hed either want silly money or he won't sell and he'll let it rot -

I agree . But i find it unacceptable that the likes of speakers , subs and amps go wrong When every other japanese car have been fine -

Luckily id already had an ls400 before i bought a 430. Otherwise id never have believed whats said about lexus quality. The 430 seem to have quite a few issues -

I agree. Having had a 430 that was reasonably well maintained .and still developed a lot of issues it will have to be virtually scrap value. -

Theyre a couple of hoarders so not sure. Thets probably rather it rot. Itll need a battery . 4 tyres and a service as a minimum. So i dont think its worth that -
I started a job in a house this week for what looks like a fairly wealthy family On the other side of the house is a blue 02 reg ls430. 4 flat tyres ,suspension low and covered in moss. I mentioned it to the lady and its her old car and they just dont use it. I did an mot check and it looks like it ran out in 2017. On around 65k miles. Good mot history too. Ive not so subtly mentioned im a jap car nut and ill be interested. Am i being a bit daft not wanting a once nice car left to rot

Very nice. Refined . But bloody quick
-
Sold it now. Got this coming
-
Taken the ufo out for the firt time today. Its got some go in it. Its a bit like an ls400 on adrenalin. Got the best rear lights. And i love the little green ones on top off the wings
-

Have you thought about a crown -
Got a bigger decision to make. Ive been offered quite a special little mx5 too. But big money

Lexus probably does the nicest leather. But cloth is much nicer
-
Gave it a bit of a clean and wax. Protect it from bird droppings while im away
-
Took the covers off . Seats are so much more comfortable . Pretty mint too. Very 90s type pattern
-
I just prefer the more boxy shape
-
Wont be for a few weeks yet. Waiting for reg and im away for two weeks. Just removed leather seat covers. The cloth is a sort of soft suede on outer edges of the seat. Reallt comfy and pretty mint Really beginingt o wish id gone for a saloon now though
