  1. Buy a Hybrid [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. That happened to me too(Autotrader). The dealer called and I went and looked at the car and bought it. I don't regret it at all. Great dealer and a pleasure doing business with them.
  3. I had to do it because the Swift at the time would only play MP3,s. Luckily I don't have this problem in the Lexus [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I did this from iTunes. You can convert all your songs in iTunes to MP3 then drag and drop onto an sd card. I've done this recently and works perfectly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Good clean this afternoon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Fitted new number plate light bulb. Probably the easiest I've ever done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Fitted new stubby aerial (OEM) as the original was chewed at the top. Looks just like a Skoda stubby which is £15 but Lexus charged me £35 [emoji19] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Nice write up. Sounded fun and looks good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Front splitter from Maxton is £99. Looks great too [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Does look good. I was looking into this when I had mine. The only splitters I could see were from Maxton design or DTM which you could leave black. Cost was good too. That's as far as I got. I've never yet seen an MC Rapid in a dealer or on the road. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. A good clean whilst the sun was shining. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. As said a Lexus LS or SC [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. True. Mines Artic Pearl and changes colour at different angles. Nice but looks dirty in places. Eager to get some wax and Sonax on it soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Gave it a wash after realising that White is a nightmare colour. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I see where you're coming from. It is Lexus smallest car,entry level ? They've only been out since 2011. It's a Prius underneath with Lexus luxury. Huge sellers in the US with the Prius as they love Hybrids over there. The later revised 2014> do look better imho with the new spindle grille and the rear F sport rear bumper. It's different and I like it. Typical Japanese styling that's what I like with older tech modernised. The Swift did have great style and lives up to its name. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. I've read this too on the Lexus forums. Most find Eco,Normal and Sport modes to be a like in terms of mpg. It's a new toy for me so I'm trying for the EV mode all the time [emoji4] works a treat if you're doing less than 40 mph. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Totally agree. Mine was changed from a Navigon to a Garmin but that was troublesome too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. Thank you. I'm trying to find an angle where the car doesn't look good but honestly I can't find one. Maybe the small rear wrap round windows are a slight dislike. Great alround vision even though the press state that rear view is small and obstructed but tbh it isn't. The car is very low to the ground and you have to be careful opening doors where there are high curbs so I'm being very cautious. Been out for a long drive today using 60% electric mode. It's so quiet and comfy. I felt really refreshed after getting out afterwards. It's just a great place to be. I'm still finding more things with this car it's great. Put a pair of new number plates on today as I can't stand plates with dealers names on them. Halfords made a nice pair and put them on too plus I had a voucher from Christmas to use to pay for them [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Valeted the car today then the sun went in and drizzled. Typical. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Nice key at a cost [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Thanks. Yes it's great so far. I didn't want any more from VAG. This came up at the right price and spec.
  22. Just bought myself a Lexus CT200h. Exact same as a Prius but with Lexus luxury. Really enjoying it after 2 days. It takes some getting used to driving a hybrid to get the economy. I just need to back off the right foot to keep in EV mode. Managed briefly to get 69mpg(instant mpg ) but at the moment it's about 58ish. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Lexus CT200h Set up all the head unit settings to my liking after just picking up the car. Trying to get used to driving a hybrid car economically. Not bad so far. Need to change the number plates as I don't like advertising companies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. I agree Tom you have to be light right footed to keep it in EV mode.
