Hi everyone I need some help from you guys who have owned a lexus before. I understand its generally accepted that luxury euro cars like BMW Audi and Mercedes have relatively high maintenance costs, whereas the average Japanese cars have much less. I would like to know how much is it to service a Lexus? This is an old Lexus 2006 I am talking about, has around 80000 KMs done. -the average service costs if I rememeber correctly is around $200- $300 at a proper service place as opposed to Kmart or so. How much would this be for Lexus? -the average insurance costs for a normal car would be around , say, $800-$1000 annually (comprehensive). How much would this be for Lexus? -As for fuel costs, I understand it depends on a lot of things, your driving style,aggressive/gentle, etc etc. so I dont expect to see an answer here since the variables are too many, but would welcome any input here. I guess that is all for now, I just want to get some rough idea on how much the maintenance cost would be owning a 2006 Lexus.
EDIT: Since the 90000KM is near, how much is it to replace the timing belt?
Thanks everyone
heres some answer to your questions
1.an average service at a non lexus dealer would cost around 200-300 6L oil around 20 for the filter and
get it done by lexus probably looking at double my average cost was around 400-500
2.Insurance may vary from garaged location but usually anwhere between 700-1300 not much different to other cars
3.Fuel wise you'll get around 500-600km depending on how u drive
