2015 Lexus CT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · AY65 NVN

A consistently clean MOT record, punctuated only by three minor advisories across six tests, indicates the vehicle has not exhibited any safety‑critical defects; the latest test on 12 August 2026 confirmed a pass with no new issues recorded. The absence of failures over a decade‑long testing span points to a generally sound mechanical baseline, with the only recurring notes relating to lighting output, tyre tread depth and parking‑brake adjustment. At 109,702 miles the car averages just under 10,000 miles per year, a mileage rate that sits squarely within normal UK usage for a 2015 model. The testing chronology shows regular annual examinations with no prolonged gaps, implying the odometer reading reflects continuous operation rather than extended storage periods. Mechanically, this mileage suggests consumables such as brake pads, suspension bushings and engine oil will be in the mid‑life wear stage, but the MOT data do not reveal any accelerated deterioration. Potential buyers should verify the near‑side front headlamp’s illumination on a dark road, looking for any dimming, uneven spread or colour shift that could confirm the 2024 advisory of poor density. A simple visual inspection of the lamp housing for clouding and a functional check of the high‑beam and low‑beam circuits will reveal whether the bulb or reflector needs replacement. The off‑side rear tyre, flagged in 2021 as close to the legal tread limit, should be measured with a tread depth gauge; any reading below 1.6 mm, uneven wear across the tread face, or sidewall cracking would warrant immediate replacement. The parking‑brake lever adjustment noted in 2021 should be felt during a static brake test: the lever should engage firmly without excessive travel and should hold the vehicle securely on a slight incline. Any sloppiness, pulling to one side, or a lever that fails to hold the car in place indicates the adjustment may have drifted and requires a mechanic’s attention. While the MOT history shows no brake‑system failures, a brief road‑test brake‑pedal feel—checking for consistent pedal travel, absence of pulsation and even braking response—will help confirm that the braking components remain in good order.
