Been a lurker on here for quite some time & the forums have been an extremely valuable source of information
Having endured endless problems with my IS250 (chiefly the infamous rattle problems well documented & extensively discussed on here) I have finally had enough and have decided to move on.....
...to another Lexus !
My faith in Lexus has been restored primarily by AJ, salesman at Lexus Edgware Road who has been in a word, fantastic & I would highly recommend him to anybody (no I am not related to him & no I have not been paid to say that !)
I have to also mention Phil from the servicing department at Lexus Edgware Road who is also a top bloke & was very sympathetic vis-a-vis my IS250 problems & did all he could to try and rectify them.
The sad part is, I believe myself and indeed a few early adopters on here have been sold 'lemons' which really nothing can be done about -- in my personal view if rattles are inherent in the car from day one, no amount of fixing will be able to permanently rectify the problem -- anyway lesson learnt & strangely enough, despite all the problems, I actually started to develop a very strange affinity for my IS250 and I actually was quite sad to see it go !
So what have I moved onto specifically I hear you ask ?
A Mesa Red RX400h, due to arrive some time in July.
I cannot wait & hopefully this second chapter with Lexus will be a far more rewarding and enjoyable experience
Cheers

Hi Typhoon strangely you're the second person to mention Mesa Red RXs' this week. Didn't know that was a colour they came in. Can't wait for the photos. Mine is due its first service tomorrow, i seem to be lucky in that i only have a little rattle when the sun-roof is open.
