Thanks again Colin, I'd even looked at getting a replacement hybrid battery if the worst came to the worst off eBay and the dearest was £895.00 fully tested but as in all things you just don't know, again will mention this to the bank as she's got a say in this too, so it's time to sit down and have a grown up conversation eh cheers again Andyc.

Hi Colin, thanks for the info it's been informative, I've been getting contrasting information from different people about the costs, still a bit dubious about the life of the older cars hybrid battery as some say they only last ten years and a new one will cost around five grand !!!!!!! But information from the horse's mouth let's say is better than hear say, will discuss further with the bank ( the missus ) to see how things progress and thanks again for the reply..

Hi guys, thanks for having me in the owners club, I've put myself in as owning a ct200h but as the original thread starter I'm looking at buying a ct200 but have some questions as I've done the same as he has done in looking at the reviews and relavent videos on YouTube too and I've even asked a couple of owners along the way! , My questions are 1, servicing, does it need to go to a Lexus garage because of the hybrid system. 2, the actual cost for servicing, 3, can you get a service package to cover both engine and hybrid system and 4, MOT can you take the car to a normal MOT station for this and if not how come, this might be a lot to ask in one go but I'm more than interested in this car but this is a once only deal for me and I need to know that I'm spending my money wisely as I've never spent the amount of money I'll be spending on any of my other cars before it, as I currently drive a 2010 honda civic 1.4 si which I really do like a lot. Thanks for your time Andyc
