2007 Lexus IS250 2.5L Petrol · AV07 UNP

The 2007 Lexus IS250 remains roadworthy as of the 2026‑06‑19 MOT at 115,049 miles. The latest test found only minor tyre damage and no other defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Brake discs, which have shown wear in previous years, remain within acceptable limits, and no new structural or mechanical faults have emerged. Mileage has progressed evenly, with an average of roughly 6,055 miles per year over 19 years. The vehicle logged 71,283 miles in 2020 and 78,301 miles in 2021, a 7,018‑mile increase over one year, typical for a lightly used car. No large gaps or sudden mileage spikes appear in the record; the annual tests are consistently spaced by roughly one year, suggesting regular owner attention. A prospective buyer should examine the front and rear tyre edges for cracking, as noted in the 2026 test, and verify that the tread depth remains above the legal minimum. Brake discs should be inspected for uneven wear; the 2022 report highlighted corrosion on the off‑side rear brake pipe, so the brake line should be checked for leaks or rust. The wiper blades were previously flagged in 2020, so confirm they now clear the screen properly. Under‑seal coverage was noted in multiple tests; inspect the undertray and engine bay for hidden rust or corrosion that could compromise structural integrity. Other components to verify include suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear or binding, as well as the condition of the rear brake calipers and the integrity of the exhaust system. Given the consistent MOT history and absence of major defects, the vehicle appears to have been maintained in a stable manner, but a detailed in‑person inspection of the noted areas will confirm its current condition.
