2015 LEXUS CT1.8L HYBRID ELECTRIC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of reactive consumable replacement. The most recent test in September 2025 at 40,358 miles passed with only a single advisory for a nearside rear tyre reaching the legal limit. This represents an improvement compared to the 2024 test, where multiple brake disc and tyre issues were flagged, suggesting the current owner is now addressing wear items before they result in a test failure. At 40,358 miles, this eleven-year-old Lexus has clocked exceptionally low mileage, averaging approximately 3,670 miles per year. The data reveals a notable gap in usage between July 2023 and September 2024, where the car covered only 2,118 miles in fourteen months. This low-frequency use explains the presence of perishing and cracking on tyres noted in the 2024 and 2025 records, as rubber components often degrade due to age and sitting stationary for long periods rather than mileage-driven wear. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system and suspension components, as the record shows a persistent history of worn discs. The tester noted pitting and scoring in early 2023 and continued wear through 2024, indicating the brakes may suffer from surface corrosion due to low use. The January 2023 failure for excessive parking brake movement also suggests the handbrake mechanism requires regular adjustment to remain effective. Given the low mileage, a physical check of the tyre sidewalls for dry rot and the suspension bushes for cracking is essential to ensure age-related degradation has not compromised the vehicle's structural integrity.
