The Problem with an Is250 is insurance for me as it would be almost twice the insurance of the 220d as I've only been driving for just over a year

If I go to look around at some IS220d's and maybe a is250 (auto or manual?) what are common signs that the head gasket is about to go, or that I will get crap mpg?
-
I am aware of this, but my commute is a good 35-40 miles either way 60% motorway so I concluded a diesel would be better, that is if I could realistically get around 40mpg out of a 220d... How can I tell when buying a car if its been driven correctly? don't want to be buying the thing to find it breaks a month later

That's great cheers, I was worried about all the problems that 'could' appear as I don't earn enough to justify spending megabucks repairing the car every 3 months, but in reality a BMW or AUDI in the same price bracket have next to no features and are extremely common

I am looking at purchasing a new car for daily driving, I cover around 30,000 miles a year and was looking into the 220D but all I seem to find Is horror stories, is this just the earlier models or where they a nightmare the hole way through? I have about 5K to spend and the Lexus looked like the best for value in this budget, looking for any advice anyone could give.
