Description

1997 Lexus LS400 Mk3 with Dynamic Handling Pack. Genuine 50,500 miles. Lucerne Silver with grey leather. The DHP specification adds firmer suspension calibration, revised damping, and the factory-fitted Lexus OZ Racing alloy wheels. All four wheels are in perfect conditioncompletely free from scratches, scuffs and corrosion, with the correct diamond-cut lips fully intact. These wheels alone are becoming increasingly difficult to source in this condition. Interior condition is exceptional and must be emphasised: seat bolsters show zero wear, rear seats have never been used, steering wheel and gear lever show no wear whatsoever. All wood trim is completely scratch- and blemish-free. Correct Lexus overmats present with no wear, having always been protected by a second set of mats. Carpets, headlining, dashboard and all switchgear are outstanding. Even by Lexus standards, this interior is remarkable and is one of the defining features of this car. In addition the paintwork also is in exceptional condition with straight panels and consistent finish throughout. All wheel arches are rust-free. Crucially, the boot floor is completely corrosion-freeunlike the vast majority of LS400s which typically suffer badly in this area. This is a known weakness of the model, and finding one that has escaped entirely is increasingly rare. Glass headlamp lenses are clear and unmarked with no cracks or blemishes; rear light lenses the same. Full service history accompanies the car, with all MOTs present verifying the mileage throughout its life. The car has never failed an MOT. Timing belt was changed by Lexus Hatfield on 21/ 06/ 2018 at 44, 868 miles. Recent work completed: new alternator and V-belt, genuine Lexus bonnet struts (the originals were beginning to show their agea costly but correct job done properly rather than ignored), and new battery. Included with the car: three keys, complete and correct Lexus tool kit, original owner's manuals, full Lexus marketing brochure pack, and Lexus EEC Certificate of Conformity. The original dealer-fitted number plates remain these are the originals, not copies. A period-correct dealer-installed Nokia 6310i hands-free phone cradle remains fitted, installed in the late 1990s. A charming period featurethe cradle and wiring remain in place as original equipment. Tyres: Bridgestone Turanza fitted all round, with the original unused Pirelli still on the spare wheel never mounted or used. Boot area immaculate and complete.
