Hi All,
Updated 5.2.2014
5 months in and a late 10K report.
Not much to add from the 5000 report still v happy with the car approaching 12K. First service well past and oil maintenance message came up at 9800 miles. Car doing 42 mpg in December and early Jan. I put this down to lights, heater, windscreen heater etc now back up to 46. I tend not to reset the mpg trip often as it seems to be more consistent over time. I have had nightly issues on the phone with favourites still not holding in. I have had to push to get this taken as a problem but it is being dealt with.
Indicators 3 flash is an issue for me on motorways and duals gets messy right left right, this is being re programmed by Lexus and hopefully the favorites will be sorted. Really like this car.
Previously.
2 months in and 5000 mile report.
MPG = 46.7 at the moment, has been up to 48 - using mixed road primarily A -B roads with 1/3rd motorway, car is at home on both. Acceleration on motorway is excellent, no lag etc.
Oil use - none, discolouration none.
Transmission - great.
Tyres no sign of wear.
Handling A+
Steering A +
Need to be taught more how to use the car to enhance fuel saving, Lexus get on this it is not really explained.
Comfortable - Faux leather seats - everyone complements my leather seats, unless you like the tech and colour options not necessary.
Rear camera - good but now fogging in colder wetter weather so glad I have the parking sensors - a must on this car
I have the expensive Sat nav option.
Phone - Audio buggy and crashes, I can live with that at the moment, as an early adoptor this is expected, it need sorting. But considering the Apple OS update that appears to have trashed my mac recently :megaangry:this is not that bad. Particularly if you do not make to many demands on it by not over pressing the mouse click to often.
Like the mouse.
Like the DvD player
Sat Nav - post code option must be on first page not second. :megaangry:
Phone tried 4 is buggy but working. :eerrrmm:
Driving - really good and no complaints at all on this aspect, in fact I look forward to driving it every day, our sports car has been neglected since the IS300h arrived! Tax saving is through PAYE bliss.
Looking forward to the next 5000!
