Although there are always exceptions. Pretty powerful I would say....

Epic for Lexus and why extended warranty is so cheap and offered for cars up to 10 years old.

 true..... don't want to jinx anyone's car, been on about reliability for a while so should be OK!

On a serious note, that reliability record is hard to argue with, very impressed.  Hope Lexus make a fuss of it.  I love the fact my 170mph car can take a beating all day long without worry, my wife's Suzuki is like that but don't think it goes quite that fast.  

Wife is after a new car actually, popping into Lexus Edinburgh on Friday morning, any tips?

If I had to change would probably look at an RX or NX, 4x4 type thingies. If smaller, maybe the CT with the F Sport kit.

This is what I'm thinking myself.  We had a look at the range rover Evoque but was £42000 with good spec, too much money to lose on a new car.  Wife likes the little 4x4s at the moment.  Might look at NX

Do like the NX. Do want a Lexus as a second car for :

- reliability

- comfort

-kit it comes with

- warranty available for 10 years

- styling 

basically the whole package Lexus offer.

The Jaguar f-pace are low £30's on autotrader. Maybe worth comparing to the NX/RX.

The reliability of these cars in my experience is amazing, this my fourth and none of them have cost me a penny in repairs.

We've had three so far - my wife has an RX450, I've had a GS450 and now the ISF. 

My two have been utterly faultless. The RX had a squeak from the brakes which could have happened to anything, and was fixed for free, and a leaking windscreen which was also fixed for free, but was due to a non-genuine screen being replaced before we owned it by a total moron. Again, not the car's fault. 

We'd both buy more of their cars in a heartbeat!
