Lexus LS 600h now on sale in the UK

Just in case you have $155,000+ burning a hole in your pocket, the Lexus LS 600h is now on sale in the UK. Forgive me, I meant £81,400. It looks so much less expensive in five digits.
We've talked before how expensive the LS 600h is, so no need to repeat just how expensive the LS 600h is, right? A while back, Nihon Car spent a week with the car, and liked it. The LS 600h's full-time, all-wheel drive full hybrid V8 powertrain offers 30.4mpg (Imperial) and 219g/km of CO2.
So, how many people have that kind of cash ready for a vehicle? According to Toyota's press release, Lexus GB had 230 orders as of yesterday. If you go order one today, you won't get it until spring.

I was fortunate enough to drive this car at the local Taste of Lexus event. (They claimed the test cars were prototypes but they seemed completely finished to me)
Lexus was claiming 20mpg at this event.
BTW, the car is fantastic. Pulls like a freight train with the extra kick from the electric motor.
