2009 Lexus RX450H 3.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · K333 ADL

The vehicle presents a positive roadworthiness profile with a highly stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 18 March 2026 at 136,538 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, despite an initial failure on the same day that recorded no faults. This suggests an administrative error or a minor technicality that was rectified immediately before the retest. Since the July 2022 inspection, the car has passed consecutive tests without advisories, indicating a consistent level of mechanical upkeep and structural integrity. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-maintained, low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Between July 2022 (116,425 miles) and September 2024 (124,093 miles), the vehicle covered 7,668 miles over 26 months. The subsequent interval of 6,445 miles between September 2024 and March 2026 shows steady, predictable usage. This low annual accumulation generally reduces the wear on the hybrid drivetrain, braking system, and suspension components compared to high-mileage luxury SUVs. Because the MOT history is remarkably clean with no recurring faults regarding corrosion, binding calipers, or suspension bushes, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than neglect. A buyer should verify the condition of rubber components and suspension bushings, which can perish over seventeen years regardless of low mileage. Given the vehicle's age, the health of the hybrid battery and the state of the cooling system are paramount, as the MOT record does not cover the internal efficiency of these specific Lexus systems.
