I've test driven more cars than I can list the past few weeks, but I ended up coming back to the IS300h at my local Lexus dealer yesterday.
This used option is 23,000 miles Premier trim for £18,995 (I believe it is 2013/14). However, something has happened on the back seats which has caused two tears/rips about 2/3 inches in length which would need to be repaired.
I went into the test drive saying that if I liked it, I probably would look to get one of the less packed models, because there's a lot of gadgetry I don't need which just adds to the price. However, I loved the memory seats, and how the cockpit almost felt like it moves out of your way when you shut down the car to get out. Bit of a gimmick, but I loved it.
I know this car has been stuck in their showroom for ages, and I'd like to get as close to 15k as possible, which I know would be a push.
Anyway, what is the general consensus on trim levels here? I like the exterior look of the F Sport, but not sure whether the harsher ride would get on my nerves or not. The base level model doesn't seem to come with much, so I think I'm wavering between F Sport or Premier. I would also prefer full leather seats to be honest, which I know is standard on the Premier.
Problem with Lexus changing their trim line-up recently is that it is difficult to see exactly what comes with what when it comes to the 2013/14 era 300h's
Any help or advice would be much appreciated!
