Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

I have admired Lexus from afar since they first came to the UK. I even test drove the first hybrid Lexus and thought I could never afford to own one. Cashed in part of my pension last year and managed to purchase a 19 plate. BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE. Comfort - Tick, Economical - Tick (Even with a 3.5 V6 engine), Quiet - Tick, Sporty - Tick. Watch your speed as too easy to creep up over the speed limit very quickly. Cruise control is adaptive and keeps me on the correct side of the law, only downside is lowest speed is 28mph, doesn't help when most towns and villages are 20mph speed limits now. Infotainment is good but could have done with Android Auto, I believe it is in the later models though. The DVD function for when you are parked was a revelation and is often used when waiting on family members. GPS and maps are up to date with a dedicated SD slot for maps. Other bonuses are speed limit notifications, Auto lights with Auto dip Full Beam function. Breezed through it's first MOT no advisories either.

How reliable do you find the car?

No problems from either the coldest or hottest days. Just sit in press the brake and start button and ready to go

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

The extra boot space with the 3rd row of seats down lets me carry all the training materials I need. The only let down is that the cover in the tailgate doesn't go as far back as the middle row seats and leaves a gap
