The All-Day Everyday Ride
PORTFOLIO Magazine|December 2019
A doting mother and busy professional find ease in a car that takes her anywhere she has to be throughout the day
The All-Day Everyday Ride

Ms. Lily Lim drives from home to office every day, but her regular route is often compromised whenever she has to take side trips to a few other places. As manager of Aardwolf Pestkare Pest Control Services, Ms. Lim prefers to meet clients in person and to show up at worksites to see how her staff are doing. With her new Lexus ES, she is able to do all these in great comfort and style.

“I’ve never owned a Lexus ES before,” Ms. Lim says. “But after driving the Lexus ES for just a couple of months, I realized how much fun driving can be.” She is still discovering the features of her new car, but she already has a few favorites. “This car has many safety features that alert me if I’m in danger; for example, this Blind Spot Monitor that gives a warning signal when I get too close to other vehicles; this is especially useful during heavy downpours.”

Ms. Lim uses her car mostly for work, sometimes ferrying officemates and clients to meetings, but weekends turn it into a family car. “I bring my son to the Boys' Brigade on Saturday mornings, and my husband and I drive around visiting family or trying out new restaurants. It’s been mostly short-distance city driving, but even those can be quite hectic.”

Ms. Lim, who has lived previously in Perth, Australia, and the French countryside, is used to driving long distances in varied terrains. A self-described “outdoorsy girl,” she likes running marathons and playing tennis. “I like keeping active and staying fit.”
