Lexus Soarer - Simon Sandbach
I have a Lexus Soarer 4.0L previously looked after by Martin Dix at Intec, Andover, but they appear to have moved on. Can anyone recommend someone else specialising in the service and repair of these cars?

Isn't it just a Toyota, really?

Re: Lexus Soarer - J Bonington Jagworth
I thought some models were badged either Toyota or Lexus, depending on the part of the world they were destined for? I seem to remember some garage being fined for putting a Lexus badge on an import, the defence being that it would have been a Lexus if it had arrived in the UK by the official route. It was a Soarer, I believe...

Soarer is Japanese home market name for what the Yanks call a Lexus SC 400.Soarer was never imported to UK by Toyota UK.Japanese dont have a problem with Toyota selling topline luxury cars and so the Lexus brand is not marketed in Japan,and the Lexus models are badged Toyota.
