Big Rat

@John Walker Yes I guess it speaks volumes about our used car prices…….☹️ 🐀

@John Walker Seems you are in luck …….call me Father Christmas…….but there is a 570 for sale at SSC Cars 21 plate right hand drive low mikes and only £90K…… 🐀

@DAW Hi David just going to get on with it now whilst physically able to do this stuff……😊 You and yours have a great Christmas 👍 🐀

So I’m not on here much at all now but I see a few have mentioned they’ve passed onto pastures new …..like @Arnett I did consider an LC 500 and was going to order a new vehicle but decided to take full retirement instead and Mrs Rat and me are off travelling around Europe….in this…. But the petrolhead in me isn’t giving up completely so I’ve got this as well….it’s hilarious to drive…. So I’ll be dragging the Abarth behind the motor home in this country just to slow down all you ‘F’ Fellas ☺️ 🐀

Quicksilver all day long ……just ask for a discount and buy straight from the manufacturer……this is a warm start up the cold is somewhat louder…..

@DAW Yes matey good weather great scenery and good people……shame a few got a bit lost at times and some of us did have to leave early but there it is……and yes @NothernDan did have a valid excuse ……. 🐀

@NothernDan Dan Yes it was a great day and all I would say if you are going to organise something is find a venue that will take everybody and all the cars….. no matter the numbers and book it ……take deposits if necessary …..it was how I organised ours down south….some pictures here of North Wales gatherings I organised…. As this will stop the issues of people trying to play catch up …parking ……queuing for food drink and so on….more relaxing more time to chill…..

@NothernDan As you say a while back but Lexus Derby we’re very accommodating as was the Lady Bower Pub…some pics from the past…… 🐀

@NothernDan You won’t get a reply from him at the moment fella he’s in Vegas spinning the wheels……🤑 🐀

@Charliecloud I see you mentioned you’d prefer to deal with an indie, I as have others from this very forum bought performance cars from an Independent dealership near me and their reputation is second to none. I have no connection other than being a very satisfied customer, take a look at them they actually have a E63 Wagon in stock, but if not the one they will source you one to your exact spec. I have contact details of the sales guy I’ve dealt with if you want to pm me…. Anyway they are called Mpowercars.co.uk based near Bristol. 🐀

@AJ500 Thanx fir the reply AJ thought as much just wanted it confirmed 👍 🐀

@Brian R Whilst on eBay Brian don’t know if you’ve already checked but there are no ‘used’ Lc door mirrors …I’ve also checked a specialist Lexus Breakers parts list who I’ve used in the past and nothing there either. I see you mentioned your considering moving the Lc on not an easy decision I guess I felt the same recently with my Aston Martin V12VS but it’s gone glad I had it, my search for the right Lc will go on as it’s a bucket list car for me, good luck with whatever you choose… 🐀

So it’s sold £54k plus the 6% that’s by my 11+ maths another £3240……for those that can remember the 11+…..🙂 🐀

I like the white exterior personally, the interior wouldn’t be for me impart because I’m not sure about the blue, Lexus did this blue with the Anniversary RcF one of which is for sale now. And as others have mentioned apart from the wheels I don’t believe these were Sport Plus HUD RWS, though happy to be proved wrong. 🐀
