Las Palmas

The one we have seems to have all the extras. Went down to the garage and took a look. Seems there should be a clip or covering as there is a little hole that could serve to hold a covering, but no. Screw is visible.

How about contacting another Lexus dealer? Or Lexus UK. You are lucky. In UK your have other Lexus dealers. Here we have one and no matter how bad/good it is there, that is what we have, if we do not want to go an a 48 hour boat trip to mainland Spain.

What did we do before all these sensors and rear view cameras were on the cars? Learned to drive!

was out driving - forgot to look.

As I remember there was roof for our luggage in a room behind the seats, and it must have been looking pretty well as my wife would have mentioned it. Suspension in the GT was just fine for that kind of car. Hard suspension: Lancia EVO 2 without rubber parts in the suspension made for rally, loud noise and very stiff but extremely easy to drive as it went directly where it was pointed. Bought from one of the pro drivers in southern Germany. He needed the new model.

I did not find it noisy and also not uncomfortable. It was a perfect little fun car. Were on a couple of tours through Europe and one down through Morocco in it. Had the plastic on the seats changed to first class leather and that rather cheap in Rabat or Casablanca (long time ago).

Did never try that and also did not know it would be that easy. I could fill the tank 1000m above sea level and drive all the way down (a bit more than 40km and would then have some impossible reading and that is what I thought had been done. But driving in mountains will never get good mileage in a hybrid as the battery is far too little to store all the power that come driving down. And driving up keep engine running constant.

So you had a GT. Nur Fliegen ist Schöner. Wish I had kept it.

That is what Toyota promised Danish importer in 1998 would happen in year 2000 for all models. The CT we have has somewhere between 5 and 15% reduction on door windows and 100 in windscreen. I knew that Toyota had promised UV protection long ago and was surprised to see that the 2017 model CT did not have real protection only slight reduction. With UV meter reading 7 outside in the sun, through the windows of the car it would be above 6. VW Golf also has no real UV protection in door windows. All glass has more or less UV reduction. Cars without laminated windows will not have UV protection only reduction.

On a trip 58.5 miles with 27mph?

Still have not seen mine. Wonder if I will notice next time I come in the car.

Why they do not have UV protection folie installed is more than I can understand. I paid 350€ for having UV protection in all door windows, rear window and sunroof; it is not possible to see that there is folie on and it is scratch proof, does not start to bubble like a lot of the home installed folios in cars and may last as long as the car. How would I know? https://llumar-me.com/what-we-do/automotive/clear-window-films/ Truck drivers in the US have a lot of skin cancer problems in their left arm. In UK sun is not that harsh, but with ozone layer deteriorating due to human mistreating of the planet it will come. Children are having more soft skin so rear windows; children are normally seated on back seats, should be protected and it is a disaster that car companies are not telling the truth about how much UV protection they have in the windows. 5 - 25% is better than none, but 100% is easy to achieve.

Reset and drive back to the place you started and look at the new mpg.

Lucky you. I have an UV detecting device and door windows blocked less than 5% UV without folio from Llumar. Only windscreen block 100%.

Windscreen block UV rays. Side windows do not. They block no more UV than any kind of glass does of same thickness. Not much. Have installed Llumar UV blocking folie in all windows except windscreen. Also Moon/Sun-roof. Transparent in front doors, slightly dark in rear doors. Toyota promised in 2000 that they would put UV filter in all windows, but have not done so.

Do not misunderstand me. I do not mean that synthetic leather is worse (or better) than leather. Just mean that it is more correct to find another name than leather to a fabric that is not leather. The ventilated material in the seats of our CT is far more comfortable than the leather we have had in several cars before. That the seats in top level cars from MB are not leather, but leather seats can be ordered is something I find good. Here, where temperature is between warm and hot all year, real, not ventilated leather is not at all comfortable. When leather is in cars in cold climate it is not comfortable either. Leather is comfortable in desires house temperature between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius and some old leather chairs are comfortable and seems to last forever if treated well.

These days I think it is way hotter many places than it has ever been before. Record temperatures in several countries. When parked in sun temperature in cars were always far higher than comfortable and with the heatwaves now!

Is it real leather you have in your car? Thought that since 2005 Lexus was using synthetic leather.

No, you are not alone. But I'll leave the car as it is. Still I like the look of the wrapping of one of the cars in the forum.

With 215/45/17 you need 523.86 revolutions to get you 1km With 205/35/19 only 523.19 to drive same distance.

Looks tailor-made for the car. Protecting well against UV, but does it not keep the heat? I do not think there is any natural leather in the car we have. It feels good and is still looking new, but does not come from an animal. Vegan leather, gully synthetic.

Where we live it is more or less heatwave in UK terms and the 2016 has so far no problems with that. Paint on a LC should probably be at least as good as on a CT

Is your battery causing problems with a 2017 car? Anybody know how long time the batteries normally would last? Our 2016 has so far not shown any problems starting, but if all the battery does is starting the computer then it should last as long as in our laptops. 10+ years. Did not answer the question = OEM battery is usually the best, but I think it should last more than 5 years. On our Dyson sucker the cheap one from China has so far been working fine 4 years, the original Dyson only 2½ (after warranty was gone). Next vacuum cleaner will not be a Dyson.

Once in Africa in AlfaSud, the engine temperature got hot, far away from a place to fix anything. Turned up heating, taking heat from engine and put it in cabin and managed to get to a town where the problem could be fixed (bypassed the thermostat). It was a hot tour, with windows open getting circulation of air made it bearable. Hot air, just like a sauna.

Morris Marina. Sweet memories. First car. Loved it. Bad memories; not reliable at all.
