Thanks DanD, so joining the RX forum will give me 15% off how do I do this?, also what are your thoughts on getting an RX400h (only in excellent condition with Lexus service history) from a second hand dealer then buying the extended warranty from Lexus, apparently they will examine the car for free and will sell me one.

Thanks for the tips guys.

Thanks ISJason, however, with my budget they already have 80-95,000 miles on them already.

Hi guys, I've recently test driven an 2007 RX400h (90,000 miles) and loved it however I would appreciate some advise on whether or not its insane to buy one of these car with the miles I do and the miles they have on them. I do about 24,000 miles a year probably 50-60% motorway plus stop start london traffic. I'm thinking that I should stick to buying from a dealer with the 5+ warranty and potentially take out the extend warranty. I'm not heavy footed and just want some opinions on the realistic repairs/problems I should expect to encounter from buying a nearly 10 year old vehicle and doing a lot of miles. I'm seeing a fair few posts on this very helpful website about the dead 12V batteries, worn suspension bushings, leaking tail lights, water pump replacement, idle speed reset procedure, rear brake callipers, quick tyre wear etc.My budget is around 10 k, I'm not a rich man, is this a stupid Idea?
