    I own a Lexus IS 300h with 100.000 miles too and it's the best car i've ever owned. I bought it from new and i'll keep it.

      My wife driving Lexus IS300H F-sport model 2018 Reg.
      They a bit smaller and some things a better and nicer than on ES 2021 :)
      I like how IS holding the road on motorway when you driving faster. But I can tell you ES300H is much more comfortable 👍

    Its a Lexus which is Toyota. My local mechanic told me Toyota is the most reliable and Lexus is Toyota with bells on.Regarding the paint issue contact Lexus UK give the local office away.

      Thank you for your comment 👍
      It's really smooth and comfortable cars to drive.
      I'm a taxi driver and doing a lot of private jobs transfering people from the Bristol to London etc.
      I heard a lot of good comments from the customers how comfortable seats are.
      I will keep this Lexus for at least 3 years and I keep updating how it's performing.

    Not sure what you think is the problem with the design? It looks distinctly Lexus but also modern. Interior is better than most bmw for sure

      Hi I'm not saying is bad.
      It's my first experience to review a car. I should go deeper in the details. Sorry you can't be good in the beginning everything comes with experience.
      In my opinion is to much chrome details outside around the car.
      Front could be at least 10-15 cm shorter.
      Inside Seat's are amazingly comfortable front panel looks good but computer controller and windows opening button's for luxury car it's awful. Let's say my wife driving IS300 H F sport 2018 and those buttons looks much more better.
      Like I said this is my opinion and all of us have different tastes.
      Thank you for your comment 👍

    Ugi, great video. I was thinking of one of these over an Audi A6/Merc E220d. I mainly do motorway miles. What's the economy like on the motorway at 70mph and 80mph? With regards to your paint, Lexus UK might be a better call!

    • @UgiBristol

      Hi,
      I'm glad you liked the video. Thank you 😀👍
      I'm servicing every 7,500 miles. Since injectors failed I'm adding injector cleaner every service now. It's mostly motorway miles at 70-80 mph and this Lexus doing above 50 mpg on average.
      Thank you for advice I'll give a call to Lexus UK.

    I would buy one but it doesn't have folding rear seats so its not suitable.

    • @UgiBristol
      @UgiBristol  Місяць тому

      Yes, you're right, the rear seats don't fold down. There's only a small opening in the middle when you lower the armrest.

    Have you changed the gearbox oil?

      @UgiBristol  9 днів тому +1

      Hi Florian,
      Lexus saying it's a life time. If you buy a new car and you do 5000 to 10000 miles a year a wouldn't bother to change it.
      Lexus Gearbox it's very simple and reliable but because I'm doing a lot of miles I do change every 50000-60000 miles.
      I'm not changing filter because it's inside gearbox. I'm just refreshing draining off and refiling with the same amount of oil.
      If you taking a Lexus service plan it's under the the warranty.
      To be honest It's very simple to service Lexus by your self I will do a videos later on.

    Is the suspension comfortable on the bad roads of Bristol?

      Hi Azan,
      Thank you for your question.
      I'll address all your concerns in the 150,000-mile review.
      Overall, the suspension is very good, but when driving slowly on rough roads with many potholes, it's quite wobbly inside 👍

    What MPG you getting working Uber around Bristol ?

      @UgiBristol  Місяць тому +1

      Hi,
      To be honest not working on Uber much. Only when making a video and picking up fears let's say, if I'm driving to Airport, and someone booking Uber to airport.
      But I think it's will be not big difference what I'm getting now 52-54 mpg.
      It's hybrid 4 and generate electricity power even when you driving 70 mph.

      @UgiBristol  Місяць тому

      It's absolutely fine, is totally different experience from normal engine's with stop/start systems.
      Let's say if you start moving slowly you using battery power in the beginning but if you need to move faster and you press the pedal power comes from battery and petrol engine in the same time.

      Hi Johnny,
      These days I'm doing a lot private jobs. Mostly long runs like Bristol-Heathrow etc. I used to work on Uber, but now time to time and I'm using it to catch trips which is on my way. 👍
