Good Points: absolutely everything, with slight exception of LCD read-out on the clock climate control, however that's on a 1991 model, so 17 years old!
General comments: The Lexus LS400 is the best car I've ever owned. Best general market top-marque car ever made.

Amazing car, bought a 1991 mk1 for £1000 at 150000 miles, always wanted one and thought I might get a few months out of it. Now 1 year on its passed its 17th birthday and done 163000 miles. It has needed no parts, and has never let me down. I have given it a good service at local garage £150 and that's it. The LS400 is quite frugal on fuel for a V8, I average 34mpg on motorways & 22mpg in town with a light foot. Ultra reliable even at 17 years of age. It has just passed its MOT nothi ...

I have used my Lexus LS 400 car for ten years and its never disappointed me. It's quite and reliable. The only bad points I have found are the electronic LCD failures on dash or climate control.

The Lexus LS400 is the best car I've ever owned, although one of the oldest. I bought it as a stop-gap but love it so much I never want to sell it. Look beyond the fairly bland styling and there is real beauty there.

I am a chuaffeur, I had driven most luxury cars in my time, my last one prior to the Lexus LS400 was a Mercedes E55 AMG, OK it did 0-100 miles per hour in six seconds, so what, it had nothing else going for it and it cost twice the price of the LS, with no refinements.
Out of all the top luxery cars I know, the Lexus LS 4300 is the one for me. We have a Merc S500 and another LS 4300 on the fleet, these vehicles are for the top three bosses in the company, line them up and the Lexus is the one ...

We have a 2000 Lexus LS400 executive car. It's ran perfectly since we got it a year ago in August. We're very happy with the performance and would definately reccomend it to others.

I owned a Feb 1991 Mk1 for 9 years from early 1995. The car felt the same to drive on the day I sold it with over 200,000 miles on it as it did the day I bought it. The car was religiously serviced according to the Lexus service schedule.
During my ownership it had the following faults.
Front break calliper needed replacement at 85,000 miles.
Egr pipe perished at 6 years old needing auto box removal to replace - £500 ouch.
Air con depressurised at 13 years old.
One stainless steel exh ...

I went for a K reg Mk II six years ago. It had 96K on the clock and had a three year parts and labour warranty which wasn't really needed except for an alternator failure after a couple of years. Since then (last four years) no problems. Some bits replaced (mid silencer box) and prop shaft (both on warranty). Not worth much to anyone else now so I'll drive it until it stops; then I'll get a 1999 (pre LS430) one again with about 100K - so I'll guess it'll see me out!
Don't think it's a great han ...

My Lexus LS400 came to me aged 6 years, and is still with me 4 years later.
All the quality reputation seems true, even if it always costs a couple of hundred pounds to get through the MOT.
The engine is superb, even in the relatively de-tuned version of my mark 2 model (anything made after 1995 is faster). I fell for it because I never heard the salesman start the engine and didn't realise it was running when he put it into gear and we set off. Two years later, I fooled my parents over th ...
