Hey, I am upgrading from my 2023 ES to the RX450h+. I looked at carwow and currently there is a 4k deposit contribution with 1.9 apr for deal going on on the premium plus. There is another 4700 dealer discount which makes the over all discount of around 12% on the 69k list price. It looks like a pretty good deal and was just wondering if anyone else has anything better offered?

I purchased my new ES in September. I dont see any options to set a temperature value on the Lexus link+ app. i emailed lexus and they told me setting a specific temp is not applicable for ES. Is this correct?

I got the Ghost 2 installed from Carkeys in south east london this weekend. I am now more comfortable leaving the car at public car parks without constantly tracking the airtag i have hidden in the car. It took just over 2 hours. i was given a great guidance on how to use it, change codes and do's and donts. 5 stars to them. it costed me £500. I had bought a milenco lock as a buffer. The installer suggested that i stop using it now as it will invite morons who will cut the steering wheel to remove it and then fail to start the car, so i am looking at more damage to pay for. The next step is installing a dash cam, front and rear. I have an unused viofo 129 pro. Which ones are popular with the forum. The dealership informed that they have the nextbase 380 GWX. Any reviews?

I am a first time owner in the UK. I have purchased a new ES recently. I had some trouble with the lexus link app which i am waiting to hear back from from the dealer. I was wondering in these cases where i get called back into the dealership to get it fixed( a 130 mile round trip), do they reimburse the fuel cost? There is then a second cost of time spent away from work. What would be your expectations and what is your experience?

I did add the car again using the registration and followed the authorization steps where i had to enter car milege. didnt work. Have dropped an email to dealership.
-
i have done that as well. Didnt work. will reach out to dealer tomorrow. I can see the DCM icon on the screen in car is grayed out. maybe something to do with that.

Its here! The handover experience was very smooth at Cambridge. the sales was was very helpful throughout with my queries. The car was parked inside the showroom when we arrived and the color looks amazing and suits the car. I went with black interiors. The only niggle was the car not being updated in the Link+ app. i was told that this gets fixed after i take a first long trip, which it did but the experience could have been better. I only persisiting issue is i am unable to access andf view the menu in app where i can remotely prepare the car with aircon/heating/sending navigation. i would need your assistance with it. adding screenshots from my app.

Found one for you on ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/404489072277?hash=item5e2d6d6e95:g:4MwAAOSw6wBlAWoj&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwH2cLBt4o8oFHfZVysC7iX6rUy2KCrjVYCJ0MeeSsIQRzYalerK3ljqUZoyU2DBcmFiAjlF3Jn2LtCVntHuw5rDXquctcZKYDq8mKrpjwPiw6RfQ%2BrCX0zuw2THS4NTd98gG6a1aHt3v6Wsh8Lu0BbKhQDQGHcN9nvS1u7NjrEGa2CLCcEyIZ3KEQNXl%2BMquhgo88iXSlo1yfKgCz0Yqd%2FJMh6UkP6XjIms8fRL0ZU0Vm4Hwold2ErHabEer0qJ%2BlQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6De16zSYg

Hey Steve, I am yet to collect it. Will add my experience here for all! 🙂

So the Car arrived at Cambridge on 6th but there was a sale event the whole week so couldnt get the car. i have now arranged the pickup for this Saturday!! Very excited for the the first Lexus! Cant wait to see it in flesh as i have never seen the car in this paint on the road.
-
This could be right based on my experience. I am getting mine in next couple of weeks. I was told 3 months in June when i placed the order. But i never got any updates on my app. i had to contact my dealer in Cambridge to see where we are.
-
The car it at the Derby Centre now. The countdown begins. no work from the dealership on the exact date yet.
-
This is now added to my Amazon basket. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have never had detailing of any kind done before. I have a 2001 ford focus which gets a monthly wash and vacuum. 😄 Is there something specific to search for to look out for like product name/franchise? I did a quick google search and there were so many results. I am near Peterborough if someone can suggest places in 50 mile radius.
-
After no updates on the app since the order was placed, i got an email today that the vehicle is now in transit. It was frustrating as the salesperson could not get me the name of the vessel and my order status was never updates till this day. Attaching screenshot below of the map being shown of its transit in UK. Can anyone advice when this status is updates, the day the car arrives in port or sometime after that? And this being my first lexus, any pointers on how much time it will take from now and anything to look out for?

I have a 2011 ford focus. I came to uk a couple of years ago and last year, when i was looking for a new car(XC40) on a new licence, i was advised the insurance would be through the roof. (i am paying 1300 a year for the ford!!) So the advise was to get a cheap one for a 1 year ncb before I get something new and expensive. Now as lexus are hot with thieves and could impact the insurance qoutes. i am getting 2k quotes when i am checking now. 😞 Now i am attached to the ford as well as it as 112k on the dash and gave me no issues. *touchwood*
-
I asked them to meet what other dealers were offering on carwow and they offered easily.
-
i have downloaded that and can see the status on the app. i did not know that i would be able to track the vessel as well. that sound very interesting. i will definitely get that info.

I am happy to share that i have ordered a Premium edition in Sunlight Green with Black interiors. I had a good experience at the Cambridge dealership which helped me seal the deal. I have been given an estimated dated of end of September. There are some amazing discounts being offered and i got mine for around 33k with with 2k deposit contribution and managed to get alloy insurance added to the entire deal. I have not had a chance to see my colour on road. i took a 800 mile trip to the south and did not manage to see a single ES on the bank weekend!!! I hope all goes well. fingers crossed! 🤞
-
looking forward to the pictures. did you get dash cam installed from them?
-
amazing way to test it out to the fullest. when are you due to get it? I will give the exeter guys a call. any salesperson you can refer?
-
33k is a good deal. let me have a talk with my dealer as well. this is like a 5k cash discount apart from dealer discount plus 2k deposit? if you dont mind, what dealer are you dealing with?
-
Those are nice deal. I did get wheel insurance added to the deal. I missed out on fuel and mats. Maybe I could discuss this later! I am not good at haggling 😩
