Description
Lovely four-owner SC430 convertible showing just 79,208 miles; top
spec face-lift example featuring tan leather, Mark Levinson sound system, clever
folding metal roof and recent new Rota alloy wheels and rear tyres; reversing
camera; an awful lot of quality motorcar with legendary Lexus reliability
Dating from November 2007 this tidy and appealing
Lexus SC430 is a facelift model (MY2005-10) and is finished in black, which is
rather uncommon, the shape suiting the shade and sits on a set of vendor fitted
18inch Rota alloy wheels finished in Anthracite with recent rear tyres
which really set the car off, accentuating its muscular stance. The car features its clever folding
metal roof with heated glass rear screen giving it year-round
usability.
Under the bonnet, we find the
powerful 4.3-litre 3UZ-FE V8 petrol engine with variable valve timing (VVT-i)
which develops 288Bhp and 430NM of torque driving the rear wheels five-speed
automatic transmission. This gave
the SC430 useful performance, with the dash to sixty taking just 6.2
seconds.
Inside, we find a tan leather interior
with Burr walnut trim, electric heated seats with lumbar adjustment, sat nav and
powerful Mark Levison in-car entertainment with radio/cassette and CD, electric
windows, electric folding mirrors, head light wash, heated mirrors, automatic
lights, timbered multi-function steering wheel and cruise
control.
The car has covered just 79,208 miles
and presents well, looking smart and feeling very crisp indeed. The history file includes the V5C
revealing just four former keepers to our vendor who purchased the car
from Brightwells in May 2023 at just 75,000 miles.
In addition, the file also includes the Owner's pack and service
book which records 10 Lexus main dealer stamps, the most recent in October 2013
at 45,991 miles by Lexus of Cheltenham plus a selection of invoices for more
recent service work and consumables including main dealer services between
2016-2020, another service in 2021 and most recent service in November 2022
at 75,133 miles all by the same garage, Rees Bros of Abergavenny. An invoice on
file dated October 2017 confirms a timing belt service costing some £1,994 at
Lexus, Cheltenham.
Our vendor has just fitted a new Varta battery costing
over £100 in July 2024 and also a discreet Auto-Vox W-7 wireless reversing
camera with dash mounted screen to aid parking along with new rear handbrake
shoes in February 2024.
Furthermore, the file
also includes a historic extended warranty from Lexus, 7 old MOTs and the
current, valid until late May 2025 which recorded no
advisories.
Ready to be enjoyed, these handsome
and muscular convertibles have much to offer in terms of quality and
performance.
