Toyota RAV-4 or Lexus RX450h?
I am approaching retirement and will be able to spend around £30,000 on a vehicle. I have owned several Toyotas including a 2007 2.2 diesel RAV-4.
I like the spec of the Lexus RX450h, auto, as well as its performance and economy, but would a new RAV-4, with five year warranty be the better option? My mileage would probably be around 12,000 per year.

Go for the Toyota RAV-4 2.0i Valvematic Multidrive S AWD. Avoid the diesel.
