Considering he bought the car from a Lexus dealership  January .what do you guys think is it worth getting 

 

Just checked it was serviced in January so next service is due January 24 next year he thinks

There's no doubt that he could get the car serviced at any reputable garage (doesn't even have to be a Lexus specialist) for a lot less money, but the service plan does have its benefits, the biggest one being the 'free' Relax Warranty. However, given the age of the car, I'm not sure if it would qualify for Relax.

One thing about a service plan is that you pay it monthly, so you don't have to find a big wodge of cash when it needs doing. Also, it locks you in to today's prices, so you're shielded from any rise that may happen during the term of the plan.

If it were me, I'd do it.

If your friend has decided that he will have his Lexus serviced by Lexus - and a very sensible decision too -  then that’s great advice from Herbie.

I bought my IS250 when it was approaching three-years old and I’ve just taken out the third service contract.  I save even more by paying for it upfront, knowing that any unused balance is refundable.

The service contract means the Dealer does everything.  They advise me when it’s coming up and even organise collection and delivery for a small fee.

As it happens, this Dealer sold the car to the first owner.  I’ve now built a good relationship with them - although they do keep trying to sell me a replacement!  Unless there’s a local problem with this Lexus dealer - and presuming your friend is buying it from the dealer who’ll be servicing it - cultivating this association can be very useful.

 If your friend does the deal, he should go to the Lexus website and register the car on the ‘My Lexus’ section.  It may well be that he will find all the past service history recorded there.  It should also ensure that he is notified of any factory recalls.

Even if outside the Relax scheme if you continue to service through Lexus you will benefit from the free Hybrid Health Check which includes the hybrid Battery warranty up to 15-years.

Also you could consider the Lexus extended warranty scheme for vehicles over 10-years, there is a thread for this somewhere on the forum.
