Lexus IS Saloon (99-05) - Review

Review by Parkers on
If you fit into Lexus' buyer profile for the IS, you're probably young, affluent and style-conscious. But that was before ex-Rover-driving, sports-casual-wearing Alan Partridge decided to buy one. Image apart, the average buyer opts for IS for its proven reliability and generous equipment. The range was expanded in September 2001 with the addition of the three-litre powerplant and the Sportcross ‘lifestyle estate’ bodystyle.

Offers something different from the mainstream, good engines, decent value, comfortable

Starting to look and feel dated, uninspiring to drive, cramped rear seats
