Summary
What does this car say about you?
I'm an Individual, not a sheep who drives a BMW or Mercedes, I don't need a car to define my status in life
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
They like it, especially when sitting in the back, just like a limo for comfort, real luxury
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes, best of all the Lexus range for drive, flexibility (family) and design/spec
What are you likely to buy next?
New GS when it comes out, probably as a hybrid to get extra performance for less cost (both money and planet)
-

Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchise
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£0
When did you buy the car?
November 2009
Did you get a good deal and why?
The car was pre-ordered but was a failed purchase so the car was bought at a lower price to clear
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Level of specifications and value for money

Very helpful and friendly
-
Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Smooth and powerful, no definable clutch change so the speed picks up very quickly (which you have to be careful of in speed zones)
What's it like to park?
Easy with the camera/sensors, has great power steering which can be moved by your little finger with no need for force
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Boot locking/opening system failed but the motor was easily replaced
What's most practical about your car?
auto opening on dark cold nights or out with friends, nice feature that removes the need to fumble for keys
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Reversing camera, the interior view and design limits the options for reverse parking, so the camera makes it very easy and simple to do without any worries (especially with sensors)
