Lexus 600h - like it

[The Sat Diver]

Been to view a 600h .. I love it and it appears to have all the toys.. plus 4 wheel drive.. I imagine a contender for a Merc S class

I'm currently running a 2011 RX 450h which i'm gradually warming too.. ( my wife absolutely Loves it )

Can anyone give me feedback on the 600h .. good or bad.. I think I would happily swap if it was as reliable as my RX

Thanks

Thanks for the input and the link.. that review answers most of my questions.. sadly I always carry a lot of golf gear and stupidly I didn't actually check out the boot !!

Still has me excited tho'

I have a LS600hl with relaxation pack, ....... Had it a couple of years now so anything you want to ask just ask away....

I mentioned AWD coz it's referred to in my earlier post on here " AWD Ls460 ....  see the legend "

Had my 2008 one since April and love her to bits to be honest. I've the HL without the relax pack but that gives a little more space in the back.  The relax pack is lovely mind, my mate has it in his.

She's quick  when i need her to be, which strangely seems to be a lot and the difference in handling in sport mode is substantial.

Downsides? I don't like taking her to supermarkets or places with tight parking but i rarely need to  :)

I had Lexus service in August where they sent me a lovely intimate video of her bits. The advice sheet was full of green items and one orange - one tyre at 4mm.  The video showed all the boots and all sorts, she's in lovely condition still.

All in all, I've had no problems at all. My best mate has had two of them and does ridiculous mileage -  he's done over 200,000 miles in these and only had to have a new radiator  (and tyres etc).

I remember driving one new a few years ago, cost then was £101,000! 

Soon they will be within my grasp

They  seem to reach sane prices after 8 years.

Well, I've had two. A LWB and a SWB. I much preferred the SWB. I'm now in a 2017 model RX 450h and must admit I like it more than the 600h. My main issue the the 600s was the steering, I found it a little vague and they tended to drift  with the road camber.

I still miss that 5 litre V8 though.
