I have a loan car for a few days while a a minor ding is being sorted on my UX. This is my first Lexus so I find it interesting reading opinions about the UX from drivers who drive bigger cars and have it as a loan car. I know about the small boot and rear legroom etc,etc but I really don't think it drives like a go gart. The ride is very comfortable and quiet and refined compared to other cars I've owned. I've not driven an IS Or ES but I suppose after those it may not be as refined or comfortable. If you want a go cart my loan car., a Corsa fits the bill. Terrible noisy, bumpy ride and cheap, hard plastics inside and the seats are pretty basic. On the plus side the door mirrors fold in when I lock it unlike my £35,000 UX !
