Quality counts as Lexus range offers
luxury and affordability
L
exus Teesside offers local businesses
the opportunity to access luxury cars at
affordable prices.
The Japanese Luxury car-maker has
an impressive portfolio of cars which are
surprisingly priced and economical to run.
They start with the CT from £219 a month,
the IS from £299 a month, the striking NX
from £369 and the GS from £359.
But the two stand-out cars are the
stunning RC Coupe, which is priced from
£369 a month, and the ground-breaking RX
hybrid, available from £589 a month.
Lexus Teesside, based on Preston Farm
Industrial Estate, has an impressive retention
rate and supplies cars to a number of wellknown local companies, including PD Ports,
Stockton-based Hertel, Richmond-based
IndBuild and the Saks hairdressing chain as
well as North and South Tees Health Trusts.
Business centre manager Richard Gordon
is in charge of servicing the needs of local
businesses.
He said: “We understand that there are a
number of challenges that every business
will face when running company vehicles.
“Selecting vehicles based solely on
the purchase or lease cost can be very
expensive. Business owners and drivers
must consider the whole life costs, including

manager Richard Gordon inside the
firm’s showroom at Preston Farm.
taxation, national insurance, CO2 emissions,
fuel economy and servicing.
“Cutting CO2 emissions reduces benefit in
kind leading to savings for both employer and
employee.
“In terms of customer satisfaction we’ve
always been head-and-shoulders above
everyone else.”
Richard says motorists are genuinely
surprised at the cost of running Lexus cars.
He added: “The tax savings are great, but
the car still has to be as good, if not better
than the competition! People don’t want to
sacrifice the quality of a car to save a little bit
on tax.
“The cars themselves are fantastic to
drive, look stunning and embrace the spirit
that makes Lexus original and unlike any
other manufacturer.”
