    True, NOBODY does service like Lexus

    I had BMWs for 20 years due to the great service but they paled into insignificance when I got the first Lexus

    Yep. Lexus aftersales policy is to love you to death. I bought my dad a Merc many years ago, and couldn't believe the attitude at the dealer - the staff strut about like they built the fuching things

    Lol!

    I know it’s no Ferrari. It’s not even a Lexuzzzz, but it’s always a good day when you pick up a NHOS. :)
    Picked up the new DD today and drove it back from Pt. Augusta.

    Must say, it’s pretty bloody quick!

    Cheers chaps. :)

    Even better, Gary. It has paddles!

    Tomorrow I’m fitting the shields and she’ll be good to go...

    I’ll check with Simon, but I think it would be “correct” if I put Ferrari shields on, seeing I’m a Ferrari owner...

    :p

    Yes, I would think so.


    Red carpets?

    Be a quick little wagon I’d think.

    The carpets are the last thing I have to fix and then it will be a proper enthusiasts car.

    Just back from my first drive in the hills. Very impressed.
    It's a really good steer, especially on a day like today (very cold, constant drizzle, occasionally heavy rain).
    The AWD makes it feel planted and it is genuinely quick. :)

    Great choice. My Golf R is 8 years old now, has 155k km and never missed a beat.

    Good work, Gary. It's important for kids to realise how far we've come and how much things have improved.

    :p
