Nice comfortable car

Advantages: Comfortable, plenty of electronics, looks good
Disadvantages: Fuel consumption, little slow from the start

I have found the Lexus IS 200 to be a very comfortable car. I have driven the automatic which means driving in traffic is much more easier and less stressful. The leather interior looks good and setaing is extermely comfortable,with heated setas for those cold winter days. The Lexus has an array of electronics with four settings for the front seat adjustments. Due to it being automatic I have found that acceleartion from start is a little slow and ...
...round the car, once your going it can reach high speeds quite comfortably. There is also a snow button, which is useful when driving in ice/snow conditions, the tyre traction is excellent in these sort of conditions. The fuel consumption seems quite high compared to other cars I have driven, however the comfort and looks of this car makes up for the expense. ...

Review of Lexus IS 200 2.0 24v

Lexus IS220d a great value package

Advantages: Quiet, Comfortable, well specified, great service from dealer
Disadvantages: Below average MPG, Dashboard rattle

I have had a Lexus IS220D as a company car since October 2007. I still get into the car after two years and think wow! The car feels well built and smooth to drive, it is very quiet for a diesel engined car and some people have thought it was a petrol. I have had a couple of niggles though, the dashboard developed a rattle after about 3500 miles but it was delat with swiftly by the local Lexus dealer with no issues at all. 'Ownership' has been a ...
...a courtesy car has been provided and the car comes back to me spotlessly clean. Servicing bills have been very reasonable. Fuel economy has been the cars Achilles heel though returning 37 MPG on average (I'm not the lightest of right footed people!) On a whole though I love this car, it still turns heads as it isn't as common as a BMW 320d or an Audi A4, and I'm seriously considering keeping it for an extra year on the company lease. ...

Review of Lexus IS 220d

Purrrfection

Advantages: Beautiful styling, smooth engine
Disadvantages: None!

...review for an IS300! Lexus are very kind people and look after their customers, and, once a year, in many parts of the country, hold an ‘Open Road’ event, where customers and non customers alike are able to drive the whole Lexus range without a sales droid sat in the back (Not that Lexus have sales droids… Even the sales staff feel honoured to work for Lexus!). This gives us mere mortals the chance to Lord it up, and look great ...
...I have with Toyota / Lexus is that they have never quite managed to sort out a good looking car from the rear! However, despite every chav known to man having Lexus type rear light clusters celloptaped to the back of their rust bucket, the rear clusters on the IS300 are now smoked, fitting in well with the Granite Sky colouring of the car I drove. In bright sunlight, the car sparkled due to the huge flecks of metal in the metallic paint. The car ...

Review of Lexus IS 300 3.0 24v

Lexus GS 300 interior fitting and fixing!

Advantages: A very different car to be seen in, great fun to drive on country roads, full of character!!
Disadvantages: Expensive to fuel, noisy engine at times,

...have decided to sell my Lexus GS 300 (mainly because my other half keeps banging on about the cost of running it!) In order to help sell, and because the car was broken into and vandalised (literally slashed most of the seats) I went about searching for an all leather interior upgrade, as mine was an odd two tone black and red cloth. After much searching online and on ebay I found a breakers yard in Enfield, London called 0800 SPARES I think, absolutely ...
...Leicester, but it was worth it! The interior is immaculate and I will be fitting it asap, cant wait! I was like a kid in a candy shop- "oooh and i'll have that radiator, and that trim pack, and those carpet mats, and that mirror glass " you get the picture. They have loads of old and new stripped out cars all racked in parts, like every man secretly wants his garage to be like! I know that once the interior is in, and the new radiator and other bits ...

Review of Lexus GS 300/430

This car could be the new Knight Rider...but nicknamed Lex !

Advantages: it has voice recognition...like outta Knight Rider
Disadvantages: Hefty monthly re-payments

...being reviewed is the 2010 Lexus RX. The new RX Lexus is here ! Its all new and all fabulous. The engine is the RX 350, it?s gotta V6 275 horsepower engine, it comes with a 6 speed sequentially shift automatic transmission. This car also comes with a RX 450 hybrid engine version that has 295 horsepower..it has 3 electric engines.. 1 engine for the transmission and the starter, 1 engine to drive the front wheels and another engine for the rear wheel ...
...the previous generation. But what Lexus have done with this generation..is that the headlights will turn as you turn round the corner..what they'll do is anticipate where your gunna be a few seconds down the road. So depending on your speed and the turn angle of the steering wheel..you can see enough of the road of where your turning into. At the tail end some ?shenan-aggins? are a foot with windshield wipers and vehicle antenna...The winshield ...
