Looking to purchase a Lexus IS300h

[zed007]

The IS300H are quite expensive at the Lexus dealership. You are looking at around £16k+, which is out of my budget.

I'm thinking about this but getting like RAC or similar car inspection done first and go from there.

Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated

I paid essentially the same for a similar mileage 2015 Advance in 2021. I'd have thought prices went down since, from a Lexus dealer. Granted, that was the bottom of the market.

If it's in good condition in an out, it could still be a good deal.

Also make sure you know what Advance trim means - it doesn't have driver assistance systems (no blind spot monitor, lane keep assist, radar cruise, auto high beam), no memory seats, no premium hi-fi audio, and not the car is not connected. Some of the features in the description look odd, like lane guidance and speed limit notification. I don't suppose a 2015 IS Advance do those.

Also, note that no IS has power operated boots, regardless of trim, simply not available...go figure.

If you expect any of that, you better look for Premier or highly configured F-Sports, but for the budget, those will be high mileage.
