New owner of a Lexus IS250

[KenMavor]

Just bought a second hand IS250 from the Arnold Clark garage in Edinburgh.

Picked it up yesterday.  65k miles, very good nick, Brechin blue is the colour.  Cloth trim seats rather than leather....was having trouble finding a leather clad model anywhere near Aberdeen that did not have excessive wear on the driver's bolster.  Does not have all the gadgets (ie touch screen sat nav, heated seats, electric adjustment etc) but has a glorious 2.4ltre V6 petrol engine that did 40mpg from Falkirk to Aberdeen. 

Happy driver for the price I paid.  Also took out a 2 year servicing and MOT plan for £109 due to getting mates rates (50% off) but declined their offer of an extra 10 month warranty for £297 which even with 50% off makes it more expensive that the Lexus one!  Here's hoping nothing goes wrong.

Drives very well.  From about 50mph to a higher number it just pulls like a train....had an old style Audi A6 with V6 petrol engine and it was similar...fast, quiet and nice to drive.

Wife and daughter both impressed with it's speed, quietness and sound system.

Welcome,

Sounds very nice.

We always encourage pictures on here

40mpg is very good, you must have been cruising.
