2008 Lexus RX400 H SE CVT 3.3L Petrol · R90 GAN

The most recent MOT on 8 July 2025 recorded a pass at 131,098 miles with no defects noted, indicating the vehicle remains roadworthy and the maintenance trend appears stable. The earlier 6 August 2024 entry shows a contradictory fail despite no defects being listed, suggesting an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical issue. Mileage has risen from 118,092 miles in August 2022 to 131,098 miles in July 2025, averaging roughly 4,300 miles per year. This progression aligns with the vehicle’s 18‑year age and shows no abrupt spikes or prolonged idle periods. The consistent increment between each test—3,014 miles to July 2023, 5,982 miles to August 2024, and 4,010 miles to July 2025—suggests regular use without excessive wear. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should still scrutinise consumable wear and components that commonly develop issues on a vehicle of this vintage. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, verify brake disc and pad thickness, and feel for any play in the suspension bushes or coil springs. Examine the CVT fluid level and condition, and look for any signs of corrosion on the chassis or exhaust system that may not have triggered an advisory. A hands‑on assessment of these areas will confirm that the vehicle’s mechanical health matches the spotless MOT history and that no latent faults have been missed.
