The Lexus IS200 is my favourate car, everything about this car is quality, from the interia to the handling this really about quality. The sports model i think hold the best model in relation to extras, from built in sat nav to the style of the body work it really is a car which you can hold as your pride and joy, talking to us men out there, however once my wife gets her hands on the car, i can not get it back. The boot, and the interia of the car is very spacious easy to clean and top quality in all area. I suppose if i was to be critical i would say that servicing is expensive but hey if you have a Lexus you should be able to afford it. The IS200 ... Read the complete review

Lexus IS220d Lexus 220d My colleague asked if he could swop his Lexus for my Nissan Qashqai as he was off to South Coast for a week with the family. The reason was lack of boot space. I was happy to do the swop for a week. The Lexus is a lovely car to look at and initial impressions were favourable. The car is a diesel and the engine starts without a key by using a Stop Start button. The engine quickly and quietly leaps into life. The car is about 10 months old and has done 25000 miles so I was impressed at how quiet the engine was even when ticking over The dashboard is well illuminated with brilliant white numbers on the ...

After my recent embarrassment inconsistently stalling the Rover 25 travelling the less than hilly streets of Croydon (see post), I thought I'd try soemthing a little more fun for a 24hour test drive. My local Lexus dealer (recently sandwiched off the Brighton road to a little corner by Fiveways Junction behind a health club...) thought I’d better try the 4-gear automatic. Dutifully I appeared at his immaculate show room and was conducted to a gleaming royal sapphire-coloured model of this beautiful car. “I’ve warmed it up for you,” said the dealer (Richard), who clearly did not want me to embarrass anyone by stalling an automatic. And as if ... Read the complete review

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 joy, everytime the car has been in for a service 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 ... Read the complete review

A pleasure to drive and to own ... apart from the fact that if you do use the car to it's full potential(especially the braking and cornering, both brilliant!)start saving up for a new set of tyres after 16,000 miles. This really is a driver's car with all the controls grouped for your comfort, however space for rear seat passengers (who needs em?)and boot capacity is at a premium. Overall though a superb product well supported by exellent design attention to detail and after sales service. Beware if you are a company car driver the emissions put this bundle of fun into the higher bracket for taxation, but then again what's life without fun, get one ... Read the complete review
