  1. The specs on new cars show engine output as 262bhp, front electric motor 167bhp, rear electric motor 68bhp Confusing..
  2. Why are some models listed on the Lexus Pre-Owned search shown as 313 bhp and some as 263 bhp? They are all 3.5ltr hybrids
  3. I love Monaco ... The best steak tartare
  4. Damn it! I will be in Italy ...
  5. I would say any naturally aspirated engine is 'hard to tune' i.e. expensive. Blown engines are much easier to get more from.
  6. The car's only doing what it was built to do! Nothing more sad than a thoroughbread being hobbled and kept in the stable ....
  7. In my Premium Nav system it's under message settings in the telephone section. Press menu, select Setup then Telephone then message settings. option 2 is enable message readout
  8. Oh and .. Dynamic seat pump @ £1000 New headlamps @ £1800 Engine mounts @ £600 Front torque arms and bushes @ £500 4x brake hoses and alarm siren @ £600 Passenger window motor @ £300 Transmission electro-plate and ball joint @ £600 (3 services at my MB indie totalling £1800)
  9. Hopefully not a 'panorattle' roof as fitted by Mercedes!
  10. Doh!! Even so, over 20k miles of my ownership of the AMG my biggest cost was fuel, then tyres. Only one mechanical problem, failed wheel bearing covered under warranty.
  11. Toyota GT86 has a very good reliability reputation In the very unlikely event of a problem at least it won't cost the equivalent of the GDP of a small nation to fix!
  12. I think they have it about right, power wise. Great engine to wind up through the gears and one can exploit the power 90% of the time, makes it feel a lot faster than it truly is. Having had the AMG with awesome amounts of power on tap, it did tend to make a lazy drive unless one travelled at hyper-sonic speeds
  13. Check you phone's compatibility here https://www.lexus.co.uk/owners/your-vehicle/
  14. Go in style, set fire to the RC-F ...
  15. Toyota's self-driving, emotion reading, speaking concept car... https://www.autoblog.com/2017/10/16/toyota-to-test-self-driving-talking-concept-i-car-by-about-2020/#slide-4333622 Being totally honest it's my idea of motoring hell but as I'm getting on in life it might be all I can manage by then.. Must say I've spotted one of these round our way and quite taken with the car, going back to real driving At least I'd find it in the car park!
  16. In SILVER?? Very nice cars but have heard many a horror story, wouldn't want to be reliant on one. Even parked up they can suffer a mechanical breakdown... My choice ..
  17. If possible try and see different colours side by side. I don't own an F but when looking at purchasing my RC-F Sport I test drove a Sonic Red (with black interior, not to my taste...) but they also had a silver one waiting to be collected. The red next to the silver was like looking at two different models!
  18. On my 2016 RC that setting needs to be changed by the dealer, it's disabled by default
  19. Now that I can believe of a Transit!
  20. Can only say for my 2016 Premium system but there is no option to locally delete SMS. One can toggle automatic transfer from the phone though, so perhaps toggle this off (if applicable to your system/year), presumably only new SMS, received whilst connected, will be available in the car system?
  21. Almost certainly because they are still on the phone. Try deleting one from the phone and see if it disappears from the car display?
  22. Would I need to make a reservation, or just mention your name??
