Hopey

Yes I am and I am going to Test Drive one next Friday.....mmmmmmmmmmm It is a toss up between a new Mountain bike (Orange 5 S £1899), or a new car?????? Can not afford both... Will let you know how the test drive goes tho either way.

Thanks for the advice....I meant a IS200. I think the reply regarding the reliability and the car is a good starting point. I will keep you ALL informed.

Hi everyone, I am brand new to not only the Lexus site but the forum thing.......I currently own a BMW 318iSE. Silver, X Reg. Here is my dilema.......I have owned 2 BMW's and have been relatively happy with both, however, I am surprised at the type of repairs I have carried out on my second one. New wishbones, air flow meter. Not big jobs, but expensive. I would have thought the old GERMAN RELIABILITY would last beyond 5 years. So here is my question. I need a reliable executive car (I like the executive perks), and was thinking of buying the new shape BMW 220I SE, and then I discovered the Lexus. Are they as good to drive, and are they reliable? I know this might be a bit of a daft question on a LEXUS forum, but after reading some of the threads, you seem to be honest. I saw a Lexus 220 SE 4Dr Sat Nav, leather etc.... 05 model 17,000 on the clock for £11,991 is this reasonable. Also when it says gears on steering wheel what does this mean? :)
