2018 Lexus RX 3.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · 11 PS

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test conducted on 16 March 2026 at 21,994 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all statutory requirements. This follows a period of clean passes in the preceding years, suggesting that the vehicle has not suffered from significant mechanical or structural failures during its recent inspection history. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,750 miles per year. Data shows consistent, incremental usage, moving from 5,446 miles in March 2022 to 21,994 miles by March 2026. This low-frequency usage typically implies minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension components. However, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or surface corrosion on brake discs, which is not always captured by the standard MOT test alone. The only notable irregularity in the history occurred on 18 March 2024 at 13,367 miles, where the tester flagged a nearside front tyre as being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. This suggests a potential alignment issue or uneven pressure distribution at that specific time. A buyer should verify the current state of all four tyres for even wear patterns to ensure the geometry was corrected since then. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should also check for brake caliper seizing or cracks in the suspension bushes, as these parts can age even when a vehicle is driven infrequently.
