2015 Lexus IS 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · DK65 WLX

The vehicle's maintenance trend shows a concerning shift toward neglect in the most recent inspection. While the car passed its MOT in May 2025 at 82,273 miles with no defects, the May 2026 test at 90,494 miles reveals significant issues with consumable components. The tester flagged multiple tyres as being worn close to the legal limit or completely bald on the inner edges, alongside pitted front brake discs. This sudden appearance of multiple tyre faults suggests a lack of basic upkeep following a period of clean testing. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,227 miles per year. The data shows a steady increase in usage from 34,050 miles in 2018 to 90,494 miles in 2026, indicating regular road use rather than long periods of standing. The absence of any recorded failures between 2023 and 2025 suggests the vehicle was well-maintained during that interval, making the recent tyre and brake disc advisories particularly noteworthy. The recurring pattern of tyres wearing on the inner edges, seen in 2018, 2022, and again in 2026, strongly indicates a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension components. A buyer should prioritise a professional inspection of the suspension bushes, ball joints, and shock absorbers to identify the cause of this uneven wear. Additionally, the pitting on the front brake discs and the multiple bald tyres mean the vehicle requires immediate attention to tyres and a thorough assessment of the braking system before it can be considered fully roadworthy.
