  1. I had mine from 100,000 miles to around 160,00 miles over around 3 1/2 years. All covered by a full Lexus warranty bought at the point of purchase from Lexus Stoke. Was around £200/year from memory. At the time, Lexus provided a full main dealer warranty on any pre-owned car under 10 years old and 100,000 miles. Mine was just over but they gave it to me anyway! That said, hardly anything went wrong with it and I think I only used the warranty once for some suspension work.
  2. I go low 30s out of mine most of the time (motorway miles mainly), and worth every penny. Brilliant cars.
  3. Mine had it. I think it was standard across the range. That car had pretty much everything thrown at it.
  4. Have you asked the dealer in your area whether they will honour the discounts outlined in your documentation?
  5. I'm sure £270 wouldn't cover two tyres so it probably makes sense. You are saving that in tax anyway. Enjoy the new ride! Those cut glass door features are a thing of beauty.
  6. I'm glad it worked out for you. There are so many things to like about that car. However, the one thing that I didn't like was that the rear entertainment screens seemed to be fixed. I would have wanted to take those out. Apart from that - perfect!
  7. I'm really pleased you have bought this. I saw it in person when it first came in. I was waiting for my RX450h to be serviced. I went back a week later to have a test drive (with Peter as it happens). The car is beautiful. I was very tempted but I decided not to proceed in the end. Not quite the right time for me what with an imminent house move. I'm sure you will be very happy with it. Lexus Stoke are fantastic to deal with. I bought my previous LS600h from them plus our current RX450h. I couldn't be happier with their service. James, on the service desk, is fabulous to deal with and nothing is too much trouble. Enjoy the new LS500!
  8. Enjoy your new LS600! I bought mine from Lexus Stoke and drove it for over three years before selling it on (and buying our current RX450h). Great cars. Was it the one listed on the Lexus preowned website that you bought? If so, I seriously considered buying that but was too slow!
  9. We just had new tyres put on ours and, after a full service, it is now a beautifully smooth ride even on the dodgy UK roads.
  10. That is really interesting. Thank you for taking to time to share your observations. It is helping me think through my options. Enjoy the LS500!
  11. The RX is very refined. However, it does not compare in refinement to the LS (in any form). It is an awesome offer. If I buy the LS500 from Lexus, I can drive it for another 68,000 miles (probably six years for me) and have a full manufacturer warranty for all of them (providing I service the car at Lexus - and why wouldn't you do that?).
  12. The good news is that with Lexus' new 10,000 miles service, get a full year manufacturer warranty, system - you can buy any Lexus and not have to worry about anything until the car reaches 10 years old or 100,000 miles. This is a brilliant proposition for anyone wanting a more modern car and no worries about any major mechanical issues you mention. Lexus warranties are pretty bullet proof in my experience.
  13. It was funny to see this come up today. I had a LS600h for four years and loved every minute of it. I sold it when my wife and I got our RX450h a few years ago. I've been thinking about finding another LS600h or perhaps a LS500. I'm writing this from the Lexus dealer where my RX is in for a full service and I've just had a test drive in a pre-owned LS500 (around three years old, 32k miles). I am finding it very hard to pinpoint any noticeable differences between the two (beyond the obvious styling, updates to various systems/technologies, etc). The experience of luxury, comfort and general driving are very similar to me. I guess the option of spending around £47k on a LS500 or c.£10-15k on a LS600 might be worth considering too. However, both are excellent cars that, I guess, may not be being manufactured for too much longer in their current forms. So, enjoy one or the other whilst you can!
