  • Customer Care 28 Jul 2006 (Forum)
    Guess what they drive in the UK ? A colleague considered dropping his 5 series company car to buy GS300. He test drove the Lexus for the weekend and when he returned his company car was fully valeted - with no subsequent pressure to buy the GS. As it turned out he stuck with the Comapny car option (Lexus not on the list). Also I remember a friend who pulle dthe garage door down on th eboot of his IS200.

  • generalising about dealers 25 Sep 2005 (Forum)
    I can understand generalisations about dealers for certain manufacturers which are very good, e.g. Lexus, because I have no doubt that Lexus exercise strict quality control over their dealerships. I can't, however, understand how ALL dealerships (or even the vast majority) for certain brands could be bad, since I have never come across the concept of negative quality control!
