I just felt the need to write something about this car.
I was invited to attend one of those strange sort of meteings where members of the public are invited to give their opinions on products. Consumer research they call it but since this was my first I did feel out of place and the presentation was a little strange.
I will not bore you with the preamble that led up to the revealing of the car itself which, up until that point, was cloaked in mystery. But, I was disappointed when I did eventually get to see it. In my view the company has succesfully managed to create some mystic with the car. My view is that, however good the advertising, it is grossly overpriced for what it is and it is only the snob value that holds RRP.where it is. For this reason youn can rest assured every owner will praise it to the hilt otherwise they are omitting they were done.

Being the wife of a Lexus GS300Se owner I disagree. Before buying this car we seriously reviewed all similar cars (Mercs, Jags and Audi) None of them really came close with spec for the price. You get everything just about.
It is a fantastic car, comfortable, reliable very secure and almost flys!

I am not a Lexus owner! I believe people buy cars for more than a basic means of transport: I think the Lexus is a good car and competitively priced when compared to the likes of BMW,Mercedes and Jaguar. Clearly those cars also are expensive but if you can avoid a car why not have something that is a little bit more exclusive than a Ford Mondeo or Vauxhall Vectra?
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,
