Another Hello

[Jamalaya]

Hi all,

Not new to Lexus, but I did swap my trusty old IS220D to CT 200H auto (navigation) 2012.

Very happy and I am already saving a lot a money as I do 1200 miles month.

Not photos yet, I took delivery and immediately had to drive 200 miles for a job and back. Tired.

This car makes the journey comfortable and economical.

I will post photos when I catch my breath.

Nice one! Is it me or do the seats need a little TLC?

what do you mean by TLC? sorry for ignorance :-) the seats looks fine as new. I imagine you mean they need reupholstering or something?

I think it is the colour and the angle. They look pristine and no sagging. if that what you mean?

haaahahaa... first thing that came to my mind was the yogurt advert (I think) .. then I thought I am being silly, it is something more technical ...  I did give it a good clean after those photos. every corner was cleaned. I was actually surprised how clean it is, like when you open the doors, spotless, all the metal and hinges are spotless, I think Lexus gave it a good clean. 

I am still learning which mode to drive. So far I only used normal, on M4 jct 15 to jct 5 it hit 58mpg going 70-80 mph. EV is good when I am stuck in town, eco mode, briefly, it is slow to respond but I haven't given it a good run it. I enjoy driving in sport .. really good fun ... but still did not give it a good run ... I will though as I go Swindon-Cambridge-Swindon once a week over M4-M25-M11-M25-M4. I'll give it a good test

It must be the light on the photo. No offence meant 🙂

It looks great - but I would say that as I've just bought one in the same colour.

Hi, very nice car there mate. I Also swapped my IS220D for one of these.

Looks great and I never saw this type of seat trim. Either way looks great overall.
