Thank you for the kind welcome to the LOC, and I take note of your points. Many thanks

Thank you for the recommendation. And do you think a car of that age, if well looked after will be reliable and provide up to 5 + years service? It seems from what I hear and read the RX can take high mileage and that one should not be put off of cars that are 7 + years old. What trim engine on the RX400 would you recommend? Thanks

Hi, I am a new member of this forum and am interested in buying a Lexus RX. I have a budget of £11,000 and want to understand what age and/or mileage can I get if I buy from Lexus? How reliable would the Lexus RX be, in view of the vintage that the above budget allows? What model is most sutiable, and what types of issues should I look out for? I hope to get upto 5 -7 years use, at 12000 miles per year, and use it as a main family car for school drop -offs, supermarket visits and driving long distances to visit in-laws in France. Is this expected usage realistic? Finally, what typical servicing and insurance bills should I expect? I would be very grateful for any thoughts on the above as I really like the Lexus RX and what the Lexus brand stands for. Thanks
