Description

2005 Lexus GS430 Auto.

*** SOLD ***

Not sure where to begin with this one - A truly exceptional Lexus GS in Mercury Metallic with freshly refurbished 18 inch alloy wheels and an immaculate black leather interior, garaged it's entire life!

Demonstrator for Lexus Coventry when a retired lady from rural Warwickshire treated herself to it because she was having trouble getting in and out of her Mercedes SL. Since then it has been looked after by the same dealer ever since, being religiously serviced regardless of how few miles were travelled in between (sometimes less than 500), until being transferred to her daughter to dispose of after sadly going into a nursing home.

That ridiculously low mileage figure of 35000 is backed up by a complete Lexus service record, the last service having been carried out less than 600 miles ago.

Then there's the engine. not the regular 300 or 450 hybrid here. No, it's the incomprehensibly smooth 4.3 V8, one of the best engines Lexus ever made, and at this mileage it's barely run-in. Unlike the other engines, this has a proper 6-speed automatic transmission instead of a CVT. Having been registered in 2005, it is ULEZ/CAZ compliant and avoids the £700+ road tax bracket.

The car is completely original, from the untouched spare wheel and toolkit to the Lexus carpet mats, not to mention two keys and all relevant handbooks.

Truly one to be appreciated and cherished by a Lexus lover. Comes with a new MOT expiring February 2026.
