Never See A Rusty Lexus Ls400

[lexus lee 72]

When walking around i always look at cars and esp older ones to see how they age and have never seen a rusty ls400.some people go on about e class merc's and 190 e merc's from the 80's and 90's being the best made mainstream cars around but i disagree.They are good quality but still see quite a few with rusty arches, wings and rot around the windscreen! just thought i would share that with people lol! What do you think? Cheers Lexus Ls400 fan

Yep upto the Mark 4 lexus have been very good - very few rust issues - however the Early LS430s have had more issues expecially around the boot lid and drivers door

I have a small 2 inch patch of rust in the corner of the front windscreen, and a few minor bubbles around various wheelarches, but nothing really that serious for a 14-year-old car.

your the first then lol mine has done 210,000 miles on a m94 and hasn't got any rust anywhere! best of all it runs on lpg and i only paid £475 for it and haven't had any problems with it! i have only had it 3 months though so i suppose m o t time in may will be the time to see if its the bargain i think it is lol! saying that it has only done 3,000 miles since the lasy m o t so maybe i might be lucky! time will tell cheers for the reply!

Mine has no rust anywhere either but I do pressure wash the wheel arches after every winter, the wheel arch rust problem will probably be due to damp salty crud build up on the arch lips.
