What Car? says
For The RX is comfortable to drive and good on Tarmac
Against It has only limited off-road ability, and there's no diesel version
Verdict
The ultimate in luxury 4x4s at affordable prices
Go for… RX 300 in standard trim
Avoid… SE trim
- 1. In the unlikely event that you need unscheduled work on an RX, labour rates at dealers are quite high
- 2. RX is very well equipped, and there’s plenty of space for passengers and luggage
- 3. The only potential problem we've heard of is that the alloy wheels can corrode quite badly
- 4. The V6 engine is smooth and hushed, but there's no diesel alternative
- 5. The automatic gearbox is slick, but could do with a fifth ratio
