  1. Problem solved, reduced image size 👍
  2. Hi everyone, trying to upload a pic and getting server error 200? It's a phone pic of an LC500 so nothing out of the ordinary. Any chance of a solution?
  3. You aren't the only one malc😎
  4. 👍Got mine from Lexus parts direct on Ebay
  5. There are some I believe, working/non working. My local red one now houses a library and a defib 🙂
  6. As you will observed having just returned from the Amalfi Coast I find myself far more tolerant of non French wines. Who knows, in say 20 years from now I may even grow to like the New World stuff 😉
  7. Hi Graham, how very true 🍻, the days of an everyday St Julien or Gevry Chambertin or Puilly Fuisse are now just distant memories. As a hard-pressed OAP I now find myself reduced to the inevitable Amarone, Barola or Rioja 1, 😕😎
  8. Nothing compares to trying to find a working phonebox in an emergency.
  9. Graham, if this is the quality of your rant after just a few glasses I strongly recommend you try at least a magnum 🥳. Lesson number 1, you sound like a Karen not a Graham 😅 Lesson number 2, you are definitely a Karen 🤣 Lesson number 3, I agree in terms of the strict use of the word manufacturing, however assembly numbers reached over 2 million in 2016 way above anything achieved before. Lesson number 4, providing revenue to the government? Well what other purpose do you serve? Other than providing input to a particular knotty problem that CERN are having with the Hadron collider, if so I am in awe. 🍻
  10. Forgive me Winston but I thought they were more associated with Miss Whiplash type bizarre proclivities, however if you have, how can I put this kindly, the multi dimensional skill set to do both activities who am I to judge? 🤠
  11. Great idea, a decorator chap in my local told me £70 is nothing these days for a roll of wallpaper 😱😱😱
  12. Totally agree Brian. In this "virtual" world the only thing virtually certain is they are all after your money by making you pay over and over for the same thing,by this money making machine called subscriptions. 😎
  13. I see you admit to carrying latex gloves, electrical tape, torch but no mention of jemmy and balaclava 🤔🤣🤣🤣
  14. Well there's lots here Martin to cogitate on, firstly, doesn't the Relax programme cover your car without forking out for Essentials? Secondly, I bought Goodyear tyres for my XKR from Oponeo and had them fitted by my MOT chap for £5 a corner - huge saving. On my RX I used Halfords with promotional offer and Gold card discount. Costco also worth looking at. Tyre Pros offer a wheel alignment check foc as a starting point 😎
  15. Same with me and I live some way away, not only that they do a super in/out valeting job. Reminds me to ask what they use on my rubber floor mats, they came last Tuesday looking like new 👍
  16. It my case, Longine, but yes, same sentiment. And wasn't being 21 such a momentous occasion back then? A grown up, without a care in the world. who would have thought it 🥳. It didn't last, married not too long after, a mortgage, responsible job managing a factory. 🤯. But far better than our parents 6 year stint. Good Post John thanks.
  17. Compared to a Breitling Navitimer with pilot bracelet I agree Malc 😎
  18. Single-mindedness is all very well in cows or baboons; in an animal claiming to belong to the same species as Shakespeare it is simply disgraceful. 😅 Aldous Huxley (1894-1963, British Author)
  19. Does the "fix" work both ways, ie if the price decreases do you get the lower one? The other interesting aspect is one of model year. If the car cannot be delivered until 2023 and therefore has a different spec apart from price what are the possible implications? With economies tanking around the world one may see a big slow down in sales. To compensate, typically a firm could lower prices or significantly enhance it's product offering, either way this will depress 2022 model values. We are hearing of workforce cuts of 10 - 15% from people like Tesla and Cazoo who clearly forecast "bad times just around the corner", manufacturers like pre-orders it helps the planning process. So maybe, right now, lexus do have enough orders in hand to fulfil 2022 schedules.
  20. Are you sure you have a valid driving licence? 🤔
  21. There are mobile firms who will come out and work on your windscreen. On YouTube there is a good video called "super clean your Windshield" or something like that, here he uses amongst other stuff 0000 wire wool. Note that it must be 4 noughts, nothing less. I have used this for years in all soughts of way. For example with chrome cleaner on the exhaust tips of my XKR - perfect result no scratching whatsoever.
