2002 Lexus SC430 Convertible
*** NO RESERVE***
Registration - R2 FPC
Chassis No. - JTHFN48Ythe details below
M. O. T. - June 2025
Odometer - 38, 000
Offered at No Reserve, this regal Lexus SC430 coupe convertible is desirable rarity. Remarkably, it is a genuine one-owner car, with the original keeper holding onto it for more than 22 years after taking delivery in July 2002. Today, the odometer reads just 38, 000 miles. Finished in Cashmere Pearl Gold with a black leather interior set off by fabulous walnut veneer, the vendor describes the engine, transmission, bodywork, paintwork and interior as all being in ‘excellent’ condition. The only small issue is a driver’s heated seat that, as it won’t turn off, has been unplugged. Crucially, the clever electric folding hard-top is in good working order.
‘R2FPC’ was fully serviced by Lexus until 2014, after which it was looked after by an independent specialist. It has had “no expense spared” throughout ownership, and comes with all the original paperwork and tool kit. The service history is comprehensive too, although some of it was lost in a house fire. It was most recently serviced in June 2024, with an MOT valid until 2025; the vendor says the tyre that was an advisory on the last MOT has been replaced, along with a new TPMS sensor from Lexus Southampton. A car that’s completely standard, this svelte Lexus has never been involved in an accident and has been dry stored and garaged for its entire life.
The Lexus SC was a luxury two-door coupe range built between 1991 and 2010. This car is a second-generation model, launched in 2001 and codenamed Z40. Instead of a fixed-roof coupe, it was a two-door coupe convertible, with the folding hard-top roof that was popular at the time. It was powered by the same 4. 3-litre V8 that featured in the acclaimed Lexus LS430, paired with a five-speed automatic gearbox. An extremely upscale machine, the Lexus SC430 soon started picking up awards from J. D. Power for vehicle quality.
