LEXUS NX2018 · 2.5L HYBRID ELECTRIC

This 2018 Lexus NX presents a consistently stable roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT in November 2025 at 34,333 miles passed with no defects, and the previous three annual tests also recorded clean passes. The only advisory items appeared in September 2021 at 16,145 miles, which flagged slight damage and perishing on both rear tyres. That minor tyre deterioration did not recur, indicating the owner addressed the issue promptly. The vehicle averages roughly 4,300 miles per year, which is low for an eight-year-old car. Annual mileage increments between tests are regular, ranging from 3,000 to 3,300 miles, with no unexplained gaps or sudden jumps. This steady pattern suggests consistent light use rather than extended periods of standing, which can cause tyre flat-spotting or brake corrosion. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean with no structural or mechanical faults, a buyer’s inspection should focus on components that degrade with age rather than mileage. The 2021 tyre advisory points to potential perishing on rubber items, so check all four tyres for cracking, especially if the car has stood unused for weeks. Brake discs and pads may show surface rust from infrequent heavy braking; verify pedal feel and listen for scraping. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for cracking or deterioration, as these parts degrade over time regardless of low mileage. Fluid levels and service history, while outside MOT scope, are equally critical for this type of lightly-used vehicle.
