Well I feel I am miscast here as that guy who neglects his car, leaving known problems to the next owner. During my ownership it has always been serviced by the main dealer, who saved it from near-certain death in 2020 when the fuel system and electronics failed. Even after a big, and I do mean big, discount to list price on the required parts, the bill to me mounted to most of the likely resale cost of the car. After that rebuild, the car ran beautifully, and has continued to do so since. So I have no plans to sell it on, not least because nothing much in the current Lexus range appeals to me. The arguments about what to replace the IS250 with are well-rehearsed in another thread!
