Santa Has Come Early!

[LEXUS-MARQUE]

Hi everyone,

Finally picked up my new "baby" at the weekend and I'm loving it.

I love the colour combination and everyone that sees it has commented on the colour and the great look of the car.

I must say the handover at Lexus Coventry was great. The car was in its own handover showroom with a black drape over the car when we arrived. My son
videoed the unvailing as the salesman pulled the cover off the car - quite dramatic!

I was then shown over the car and talked through all the features and finally when I was happy and understood where most things were I drove the car out of the showroom. The only downside to the day was the weather!

I've only put about 100 miles on the car so far and still haven't tried out all the "toys" but will do so over the coming days/weeks for sure but my initial feelings are the car is very nice indeed - the car handles well, is very comfortable and quiet and the ML stereo sounds epic (to my ears anyway). I'm very happy with my purchase.

I know MPH is important (although it wasn't my main reason for buying the NX) and at the moment since picking the car up I'm getting around 34mpg but it is early days of course.

I will be taking the car over the Xmas holidays to North Wales and will have a better idea how it handles longer trips then.

I will give a more indepth review once I've put a few more miles on the car but for now Christmas has come early! :hohoho:

looking good congrats on your purchase,if you picked up from coventry you must have seen our NX 64 plate same colour combo as yours on the forecourt which we part exchanged for an RX.

Hi Eamonn,

Yes she was parked right near the entrance to the forecourt on Saturday. I actually sat in her a few weeks ago when I went to the garage for my second test drive!

Hope you are enjoying your RX

All the best

Congrats, great choice of colour, just like mine. Enjoy the car.

Love the look of the NX, considering one when its time to change but that would be a good number of years away.

Enjoy your new toy!

Looks great, enjoy. How does it compare to the nice Bentley parked in corner of photo?

Totally different cars, the Bentley is a 4X4 W12 6.0 litre monster that is only used at weekends or when the weather is nice or if I need to blow away the cobwebs!

The NX is going to be my daily car and in it's own way is just as nice to drive. Both cars make me feel special when I drive them which is what it's all about in my book!

Totally agree. It should feel special every time you get in the car.
