How did you get on in the end Gill?

Not sure if this article has been shared, which seems to confirm the end for new Lexus V8 motors in the UK.

Supremely jealous of all these lovely cars. With the discontinuation of the V8, I hope Lexus can pull off an equally desirable driver’s work of art for the future. As it happens, Lexus news feels a bit quiet and uncertain!

Indeed, it’s not cheap! Should probably buy some Toyota shares 😜

Cheers fellas. Ordered one of these from LPD in the end and turned out… it was the correct one 👍 Here’s hoping I get a complement on my shiny new clip 😜

So nice. Congratulations! 👍

Thanks everyone. Glad I went with the IS this time last year, although have since test driven an ES, NX and UX. NX was surprisingly enjoyable! Even though I’m not overall keen on SUVs. As someone who drives a lot of vans, I can see the appeal of a higher seating position. Recently had 4 new Crossclimate 2s fitted to replace the aging Bridgestones. Night and day difference!

Hello, decided to join up here after browsing as a guest for a good while. My 2014 IS, bought last year, is my first Lexus, but not my first Toyota, after previously owning a 2005 Corolla and 2008 Avensis. Hoping to keep the IS until it’s 15 or thereabouts and see what the situation is. I’ve always had a preference for slightly older, well looked after cars, and Lexus really suits this kind of philosophy as I’m sure everyone knows. I think my ideal garage would comprise of a mint LS 400, a daily driver RX, and an LC for weekends 😜

Yes, please post photos so I can have a vicarious new ownership experience 😜

I really want to know what the next model will be, considering they have an SUV/crossover for basically every size car (that the UK could want). Surprised that the LM came to the UK market. Checking the new registrations for those will be interesting over the coming years… For IS owners, would you consider the ES? Assuming the CANBUS problems are fixed in the future?

Hope you get this sorted. Make sure to post a pic of how the refurb goes!

There’s a fine line between compensation and pushing it. I’d personally be happy with a full correction of the alloy and the matching tyre. It might be best to let them know about the tyre in advance, in case they have to order one in.

Bit rubbish that they sold you it with low fuel. In comparison, mine came with a full tank!

Hello all, Does anyone know with certainty which push fit plastic rivets are required for the boot lid liner on the phase 3 IS? It looks like it might be these but I naturally don’t want to order 10 of something completely wrong 😜 All the best, Binno

What an impressive undertaking! I had no idea the SE didn’t come with heated seats as standard 🧐
