  1. Does the car need to have an Android Auto for this to work?
  2. Great wrap up. I totally agree with you on heated seats! When I got my GS, after BMW seats felt barely warm, I actually had to take car to a dealership to check them - they said all works as it should. Good looking car you have too.
  3. What do you get when you do less motorway miles?
  4. Welcome to LOC Sophie and congratulations on a new car.
  5. My GS (2012) was really rusty underneath, main reason for selling it 2 years ago. Outside the car looked spotless but underneath it was a disaster, I was told this is Japanese thing and British winters. It is a shame to hear that a 2018 car has the same issues. and here I was this morning of thinking of getting an ES! Rust and potentially car theft just puts me off again and again.
  6. Nice car! I am wondering how it drives compared to 450h GS, I understand that GS faster but handling wise, it should be more agile would think. What mpg can you get out of these engines, on a run? My average with 450h was 35mpg over 4 years.
  7. Hi Jamie, nice car. However, it is still not for sale, sorry.
  8. My old Lexus is back on sale on Autotrader, it is not me who is selling it. I sold it last year, June, then it was re-sold again in November, I added some link above for that at that time. Now it is back on with added AppleCarPlay. The price is higher compared to what I sold it for 1.5 years ago!
  9. Hi Jamie, thanks for being interested but it is not for sale. I am trying to have a collection of the cars that I owned (I don't have all the cars as some of them were not worth it) and GS is on top, so far this was the longest car I have ever owned. Apologies. See link below, this is not what you are looking for exactly but may be worth look. Kyosho KY03659GR Die Cast Model : Amazon.co.uk: Toys & Games I bought it from this site: https://www.diecastlegends.com who knows, may be they will get another stock, you could get in touch with them.
  10. That is not exactly correct, 40 is the percentage of the width, see above from Colin or Mr Vlad. So wider tyre will have a higher wall or what you called it a Thickness from Rim to Thread. 225/40 and 265/40 will have an effect on speedometer reading, therefore your mileage, your car car will be higher with wider tires too.
  11. Hello "O", welcome to forum! Your GS looks fabulous, it made me miss mine, the size, the shape of GS is perfect and time didn't affect it much, still looks fresh!
  12. Hi, the problem I had was never fixed and never new what caused it, all I could do to make sure the car drove more stable is put suspension on Sport Mode. This was one of my main issues with the car, even skoda Octavia I had as a courtesy car was holding the road better. I also had 4 new tyres (Good Year) fitted, wheel alignment was done couple times at Lexus Glasgow and it still was not stable - any move with your head and you already half the way to another lane! I am sorry to hear there is another owner that suffers from the same problem! I wish I could get a shot in another GS to compare, that way I would spend money on suspension etc but mine was checked and all seemed fine, plus when I bought the car the mileage was only 33k miles so shouldn't be worn! I hope you will find a cheap solution to it and soon. Otherwise the car was really good! Good luck!
  13. The price gradually goes down, still much more for what I have sold it for. Good car though.
  14. Hi Steve/John, I am waving you from Puerto Rico Gran Canaria, I can see Tenerife from here! 😉
