Love the colour. I used to have a 2014 f sport. Very good mpg and I'm sure you will enjoy the Premier trim.

Good choice please post some pictures

The main difference I think is that standard suspension mode in the adjustable models is same as standard car, but it can then be made firmer either in normal or eco mode (customize) or Sport + mode

You need to learn to drive a hybrid (see the Lexus YouTube video) . I have averaged nearly 37 mpg over £10,000 miles with my 2017 Premier. That is genuine mpg from an app on my phone checked tankful to tankful.

I've not driven a Lexus with air suspension but I do enjoy wafting along in the RX. I used to own a Mercedes 300ce which in 1990 cost £42000 which today means it equates to around £100000 car and was beautifully built . That was a wonderful long distance cruiser and the Lexus is on a par for ride comfort.

Former Merc E250 convertible owner (c220 before). Now driving my 4th Lexus since 2016. Until lockdown 500+ miles a week. Lexus RX450h rides wonderfully with the adaptive suspension. Much better build quality than the Germans

I've just had a similar issue sorting out warranty because of an error when I purchased my current car plus a private plate confusion. The 5 ladies in the team at the warranty company are extremely friendly and helpful.

Can't quite work out how your breakdown cover finishes on boxing day but extended warranty doesn't start until June 🤔

I have a paint detective which works on alloy and steel.

I had a gen 3 Advance before buying my Jan 2017 Premier. I wouldn't want the car without the 360 degree cameras as it makes parking so easy and the HUD is fantastic. Economy is very good with all the power you need. Averaged nearly 37mpg over 10000 miles.

Yes, but check first the terms the dealer of your choice lists here. Some don't give any discount, others vary. I was surprised that I got 15% off my Mot at Cheltenham.

Buy yourself a copy of 'Roadcraft' a very good ready on advanced driving techniques. I was very fortunate in my career to have been the recipient of numerous driving courses starting with a 6 week long 'standard' course at the now defunct No6 Regional Police Driving School in Wiltshire. Once you have learnt to system drive it remains with you throughout your life. Advanced observation and road positioning is the key although double declutching is no longer required 😂😂

I use Cheltenham and like you have gone from 500 miles a week to virtually zero. They always do a good job and give me a 15% gold member discount which for the big Service is not to be sniffed at.

Cheltenham is good and if you are a gold member will get 15% off.

Last white car was a pearlescent white 2015 GS300h. No harder to match the paint than any other modern metallic / pearlescent finish. I would have another white car no problem. Very rare in the RX450h though which is how I'm in a boring grey one 😂

I bought one 3 years ago and it’s great. Generally only needs charging once a season

I just bought the 2 for 1 on my car when the current warranty expires on January 19th. Making my first payment 2nd December

I believe it was the same last year. It was a big reason for buying pre April 2017

Sorry I haven't got a link to it. Just search in YouTube Lexus hybrid driving tips. I just found it easily Currently I own a 2017 RX450h and rarely use eco. Over 10000 miles my phone app says I have averaged 36mpg. Over 2000 miles fully laden in Scotland I managed just shy of 37mpg. I have driven a loan UX and certainly the computer showed great mpg.

I just paid £115 this month on my 2017 RX450h Premier (registered January 2017).

Barry from bitter experience Do Not let the Insurance approved repairer near your car. Choose the repairer you want to use. That way you can have some insight into the quality of what in your case is a major specialised repair. I foolishly allowed my IS300h to be repaired by the insurers bodyshop and after initially losing my car they fouled up so badly the car was returned 3 times. The last time was because a reaction in the paintwork caused by bad repair required half the car to be stripped back and repainted. Also they refitted the bumper incorrectly. All within days of return to me. I had already traded the car when the paintwork fell off and Lexus Cheltenham returned the car to them for repair having found several other signs of poor repair. Good luck. Ps since then my wife needed minor repair to her car and a local bodyshop sorted it out via our insurers. They did a proper job and supplied a courtesy car As an aside that silver is a difficult colour to blend in and will require a lot of skillful painting to get it right. I am talking from experience with my last RX450h identical to yours. Regards Les

On my 4th Lexus. All manufactured between 2014 and 2017 and still haven't mastered the voice control. Sad to say my wife's 2015 Fiat 500 has an easier entertainment interface. Only about £50000 difference in the new list price 😂

Quite agree with this. Have you also removed any other phones that are showing as paired?

My 2017 Premier had a fuel pump change under a Lexus directive whilst it was for sale last year so whether this is the same recall or a fresh one who knows...

Another good repairer is 'reinventing the wheel in Tewkesbury'. They do wheels for Lexus Cheltenham.
