Thank you for all your help!  It's the MPG that worries me, I get 30/31 from my Lcd5 land cruiser now nearly 7 years old 80,000

just a couple of problems in all that time. Ok not quite as refined as my son Discovery but less than half the service costs and so reliable.

My RX450h premium is now 10 months old and the only main issues I have experienced are intermittent failure of the lane control and auto high beam both of which use a common sensor i.e. camera.

The dealer can find no faults as every time a check is made the car starts off as normal and everything works. Failures tend to occur after a period of time driving anything from 1/2 hr or more. Failures on average occur once evry three days. All very frustrating.

Another item that is inconsistant is the radio when the vehicle is switched on will be OFF and not as it was last left on a station or Ipad via USB. Again this is intermittent but not so frequent as the lane control issue.

Coupled with the above the passenger seat aircon setting will also  show a blank on start up rather than the setting i.e. 22 (degrees) swithching the air recirc auto on and off sometimes will bring it back on.

Again the dealer cannot find anything wrong.

All the above may well be software problems but I am told I have the latest software for the vehicle.

My gripe is really that Lexus do not seem to take these issues seriously enough to fully investigate ...it cost the dealers time and money .....and if there are software bugs Lexus are unlikely to admit to them as they then have to issue a software update ...again time and money. So my reveiw of the car does not give Lexus the stars it would otherwise deserve as in all other respects its a good car and I am now on my fourth model all from new so I am still faithful to the brand......but for how long?

Oh and by the way don't believe the quoted MPG my average over the 10 months is 36.9. The winter months have bought it down from 37.6 and I think my driving is careful no foot down or high speeds and thats on ECO all the time.

The one in the Ford is right annoying. At night you can see the wires due to oncoming lights from cars and also in bright sunlight.

I believe they're a PITA to sort out if you happen to crack the windscreen and some insurance companies are saying the excess of approx £70 for a new screen applies to standard screens only. 

Tank is 62L on 3RX and 4RX. It should be getting roughly 400-500 miles per tank but the cruising range is very cautious. When it shows low fuel, Ive still only managed to fit around 47L in

Thank you great honest review! I was thinking of swapping my land cruiser for 450rx will look at Volvo instead
