2017 Lexus NX 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · DC66 FYX

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 10 September 2025 at 97,398 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that all previous mechanical concerns were addressed. Following a specific failure in late 2024, the vehicle has cleared subsequent inspections without any recorded advisories or defects, suggesting consistent upkeep. At 97,398 miles over nine years, the Lexus has averaged approximately 10,822 miles per year, which aligns with typical annual usage patterns for a premium SUV. The data shows consistent use, with a jump of 17,417 miles recorded between January 2023 and January 2024, and another 8,353 miles between January 2024 and September 2024. This regular accumulation discourages long periods of standing that often lead to dry rot seals or brake caliper corrosion. The failure on 11 September 2024 at 92,955 miles highlighted a lapse in monitoring both the offside and nearside rear brake pads. While the offside pad was measured at a critical thinness of 1.1mm, the nearside was also wearing thin, indicating reactive rather than proactive brake maintenance. A buyer should personally inspect the current state of the rear discs for scoring or heat cracking to ensure the replacement pads were fitted without causing damage to the metalwork. Given the mileage is approaching six figures, a physical inspection should also focus on suspension bushings and coil springs, as these components often show fatigue at this interval. While the record shows no historical structural integrity issues or exhaust emissions failures, checking the chassis for signs of surface corrosion remains a standard practice to confirm the vehicle matches the condition suggested by the MOT history.
