Description

A genuinely lovely example of the legendary Lexus LS430. These cars are becoming increasingly hard to find in honest condition, especially with so many factory features still fully functioning. The 4.3 V8 engine and automatic gearbox are beautifully smooth and effortless, exactly as these cars were designed to be. This is the more desirable facelift model, benefiting from the updated front and rear light design along with the factory integrated exhaust exits, giving the car a much more modern, refined appearance. This has been a very reliable and comfortable car for me and is being sold only due to a rapid change in personal circumstances. If circumstances allowed, I would happily keep it. Huge specification including: * Heated and cooled electric memory seats * Factory massage seats * Electric adjustment throughout * Oscillating air vents * Electric sunroof * Mark Levinson premium audio system (fully working) * Double glazed windows with no failed/blown glass panels * All electronics functioning correctly aside from steering wheel adjustment * Plus many more electrical luxuries and comfort features not listed Mechanically, the car drives very well for the mileage and has benefitted from: * Timing belt and water pump replacement at 171k miles * Good service history including Lexus history Condition: Overall the car presents very well for its age and mileage, though naturally it does have some age-related wear and cosmetic imperfections consistent with a 22-year-old luxury vehicle. In the interest of being completely honest: * There is some rust beginning to appear on a few door panels, which is a known/common issue on LS430s * Previous MOT advisory recommended undersealing for areas of surface corrosion underneath * Air conditioning would benefit from a regas * Front discs and pads may soon require attention * Steering wheel adjustment motor is currently not working electronically. The wheel has been manually set into a comfortable driving position and remains fully usable as is None of the above stops the car being usable and enjoyable as it stands, but I would rather be upfront so buyers know exactly what they are viewing. Priced realistically to reflect the mileage, condition and minor jobs outstanding. Open to sensible offers. A fantastic opportunity to own one of the best luxury cars Lexus ever produced incredibly refined, dependable and built to a standard rarely seen today. Happy to answer questions or provide additional photos/videos.
