Yep - sounds like a slip up - I would just double check when you take it in to make sure it's marked down on the job sheet correctly before they start work

 

Will do. Thanks again!

Ah ok - then they are doing the 40K mile service - so you are getting it serviced in effect 5K miles earlier than the table - so it would be £535 - I think they are mistaken about it being the 50K service in that case

Ah, ok... she did say 50k... but that’s the price she quoted... thank you for this.

According to the Lexus UK site, https://www.lexus.co.uk/owners/servicing-and-maintenance/, it’s £265.

 

beaten by 20 seconds....

Thanks for your reply. I paid 265 for the first, then it went up to £360? for the last one, I thought it would be around the same, but she was adamant it was the 50k service this time, over £500 this time

Just seen your model year is 2017 - so if you are on 35K miles for a 2017 model year it should be simply servicing based on mileage - so why are you getting it serviced at 35K miles?

 

They serviced the car at 5k when I bought it. So service is every 10k 

Thanks for your prompt reply. The car is an early 17 plate so maybe that’s why the cost is high.

My car is booked in tomorrow, been told it is a 50k service and over £500. I question this as I thought it would be around £360... she said no, it’s the 50k service. The car is on 35 k... some advice would be appreciated.

thanks. 

Rayaans, thanks again, I’ve got the car booked in for the windows tinting on Friday morning. Will ring the dealer about the spoiler, he’s supposed to be getting back to me with a service plan.

How long ago was that? I’ve seen them on their eBay site for like £630 ish, not sure how much they would charge for fitting.

billy

Thank you Ryaans, got a quote, but will call them and discuss this with them. Appreciate your knowledge.

billy

Thanks for that, waiting on a quotation for it, although I’m sure I saw a really slim one somewhere. Also waiting for the lad getting back to me about having the rear windows tinted..

Thanks

Hello Billy

Do tell us more about this IS that you are currently enjoying.

Also, pictures are always appreciated.

My first venture from a company diesel car was an is 250f sport which was great, but now back in sales and wanted diesel type mpg but Hybrid/Petrol there was only one choice... loving it, first full tank averaged just ove 45 mpg... hoping this will increase when it get some mileage on it, but have read this will also improve when winter is over..

Agreed, have asked about a boot lip/spoiler for it as well... thanks

Had a 2012 250f sport previously, but had the chance to get one of these for work and get away from diesels and having luxury as well as economy... ex demo car, but immaculate... 

Just saying hi to all, picked up my 17 reg IS 300h last Saturday and to be honest have been delighted with the car, loving everything about this car. 

Billy

Just drove from Harrogte to Aberdeen yesterday and got 37.6 driving at 78 on motorway and sticking to the speed limit on all other dual carriageways and A roads from an F sport.. Not bad at all... Took my time on the way back as I got 3 points on the way down !

Just picked up my F sport last Sunday and drove up to Aberdeen, reset the counter because I 'give' it some for part of the trip, but I did 456 miles and still had just over 30 miles on the clock.. Averaged 39 mpg from Perth to Aberdeen... Well chuffed, only got 42-43 mpg out of my diesel Mondeo... With a heavy foot I may add. Couldn't be happier with my car

Picked her up this morning... Well chuffed, drove from Nottingham to Doncaster to see my Daughter and then up to Aberdeen, 456 miles and according to the screen, I still had 36 miles left... Did one reset, at Penrith, averaged 39.2 mpg tank average 37.4... Really pleased, only gripe was satnav had a mind of its own wanting to take me off the A90 at every opportunity...

Hi, just picked my own IS f sport up today, great cars..

Hi Tony, I collect mine this morning... Welcome to the forums.

Hi Stephen, I'm new to the forum too, there is so much relevant info from the guys on here.

Another Google Lexus IS search... Great knowledgeable forum members..

Hi, it was a long time ago, my Father worked out there and we went with him as a family. Have some wonderful memories from my time there, beautiful Island and wonderful people.

Hi Rishi, welcome, I'm new to the forum and Lexus. I lived in Trinidad for two years when I was a kid. St Joseph village, San Fernando. Loved it. Regards, Billy

I'd rather not say what I paid for the car, but it had just under 11k on the clock.

Billy

Traded my old car in towards this new one and to be honest, I paid the screen price as it had just been reduced. I'm happy with the final price.
