Unless you spend big and opt for some form of Lexus, combining affordable running costs with luxury is quite a tough balance to nail. High-end luxury cars tend to come with posher equipment, which can cost a fortune to repair if it goes wrong. In addition, vehicles like the Lexus LS 500 come loaded with a big and powerful engine, which not only costs a fortune to keep running due to being thirstier than smaller units, but also because they’re more demanding to maintain and service.
