Anyone got experience of the Lexus RX300?

Quick thread update - thanks for the info here.
We picked an RX300 for the wife this afternoon. Didn't go for the newer version in the end as we found an 02 plate with low miles for locally for a bit of a bargain. It looks and feels like it will do the job just fine

Hi Steve, I bought a 2002 model.
It was comfy, decent in the snow with M&S tyres and easy to drive.
Very thirsty car, not helped by a 4 speed box. Not much fun on the motorway having a box V6 spinning away.
Ultimately though, even Lexus legendary reliability was no match for my ex-wife who half filled it with diesel. Burnt valves, 4-fig engine work but it never ran the same again and could go through a litre of oil quicker than a tank of petrol.
Now sold, but not really missed. Don't think I'd do the SUV thing again unless my circumstances drastically changed.
