I dont know about Luxor, but there is an Egyptian Automobile Association office in Cairo which I imagine can issue Carnets. There was also an Egyptian AA office at Nuweiba in the dockyard. I'm suprised there was not one at your port of entry!
Basically to take a foreign car into Egypt you need a Carnet, then you need to buy a temporary import license (250GBP) insurance and then get plates off the Traffic Control Department.
Good luck, these things often take time! The cards are unfortunately stacked against you.
If you can't get a carnet though then how about shipping to Aquaba in Jordan and missing Egypt altogether. You should be able to get a ferry from Lebabon to Cyprus.
