Just found this on the tube may be helpful if some experiences this problem, seems like any easy fix to do yourself. Big Rat

@stevet From all the other afore mentioned models and associated forums these are the models mostly likely to be stolen as a resort of burglary knifepoint robbery and so on. Those forces north of Gloucestershire have specific uniform / plain clothes units set up to deal with what is becoming an increasingly common crime, I see you live in Cheshire the North West is one of the worst they have some if busiest interceptor teams in the country.The itv Tonight programme highlighted it a couple of nights ago the figures in the Midlands and up North are shocking car theft up 30% this year alone. Over 230 cars stolen in one district of Manchester in one week 5000 this year, most of which were German performance cars and Suv's the figures read the same for the West Mids North East, Leeds Bradford and so on. It is not confined just up North Essex London etc but what is being highlighted is the sheer level of violence being used against Police and members of the public by this scum in the Midlands and further North. The figures go on and on in one small 'middle class' are of Cheshire there were 251 house burglaries just to steal the car keys in 19 days! Stick with Lexus matey it seems a lot safer 😏 Big Rat

@Jgtcracer Your right money can’t be ignored the RS residuals are pretty good as probably the M2 as well, though perhaps not to 1M levels ! Manual or DCT for you then ? 🐀

@Mark G I disagree the best always seem to sell quickly 😉 🐀

@Mark G Nope none there maybe they've sold it ? 🐀

Of course it would help if they discovered the wonders of digital photography, they've had the car for sale for nearly 2 weeks and it still says 'Awaiting Images'. @Flytvr Davi they are your new Bessie mates pop round and give them the benefit of your vast snapper skills 😁 Big Rat

@Jgtcracer Marcus the reliability of the M2 not read anything of real consequence but it's early days as yet, negatives from the one owner I know the rude what ever the setting is hard especially on broken surfaces and this is from a man that had an an 08 isF for 3 years! His is a manual which has the blip control for the throttle which can only be disabled if you fully switch off the traction control- not ideal. The build quality he describes as ok, but in reality it is no baby M3/M4 it is not a proper M car despite all the hype again in his opinion. Oh and anybody who lives north of Gloucester will have to bear in mind the security of these cars at home burglary for the keys wheels being nicked and so on, it's a massive problem for M cars Audi S/RS and the performance Mercs. It's an aspect of ownership of these cars I personally believe can't be ignored. Big Rat

@Kritter Hi Kristian welcome to the forum, this car hails from the Chippenham area and has been seen quite regularly by a member on here @Mark G it's not nor to the best of my knowledge been a forum members car and came onto the market only in the last week or so Theres a lot of knowledge on here fella so feel free to ask away 👍 Big Rat

@MNMJ I admire your thrift explains how you can afford to run two lovely cars 😂 🐀

@emjay82 That's odd they look a tad contemporary for you a week or so ago you were wearing these ......

@talaipwros Ah yes one of those head and heart decisions, for me it’s easy it’s the V8 I’ve always been a car man and as long as these engines are produced I’ll be buying. I’ve bought similar priced cars New in the past I just won’t do it anymore prefer putting it in houses, typical builder ! Lots of lovingly cared for used ones out there as time goes on 👍 Big Rat

@Womble72 Can’t disagree with that matey the mighty ‘F’ lives on 😂 🐀

So it seems this golf tee/ office supplies mod has been around for a while pics and video in this link https://www.edmunds.com/lexus/rc-f/2015/long-term-road-test/2015-lexus-rc-f-making-it-louder-with-office-supplies.html Big Rat

@alter ego You enjoy that pension matey it's deserved 😂 🐀

@Womble72 Paul who knows give it a try you may have a 'Red' letter day the process isn't to 'taxing' 🙄 🐀

@Chuckie478 So do you think there is so merit in my master plan or or am I barking at the wrong bowser 😏 🐀

@Looney I wonder if this extremely painful 😖 sounding highly desirable modification works on an is-F 😳 🐀

@Defratos Don’t say you didn’t enjoy it st the time 😂 🐀

@Flytvr you are so hurtful, perceptive but hurtful 👊 🐀

@Chris Skelton Yes that is a fair wedge to outlay, being heavy has its downsides...... Big Rat

Yes there's always a fly in the ointment, don't suppose some cable ties and gaffer tape will do it........ 🐀

@malcolmw Great colour choice absolutely fantastic cars, was fortunate enough thanks to Lexus Cheltenam to have extended loan drives in both the 5.0 and the hybrid very impressed with both, permit me a couple of pictures of our day..... Big Rat

Well they were a bit more complementary about the ride of this than they were in the article yesterday regarding this......... https://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-driven/lexus-lc500-driven/36986 Was a well kept LS it must be said, so just how much is the work needed on the car at 100k likely to cost ? Big Rat

So all this talk about 'free' petrol from Lexus when our cars go in for the airbag recall has got me thinking 💭 On my way to Bristol when I get mine done I have to go past Bristol international airport, so I thought I'd nip in and borrow one of these and see just how generous these dealers can be............... yes I accept it's a tad ambitious but if I pull it off gotta be better than some free plastic drinks bottle 😂 Big Rat

@Steve Seems along with others it started two days ago.... https://www.cnbc.com/2017/10/25/harvey-weinstein-lexus-cancels-deals-with-the-weinstein-co.html Big Rat
