2018 Lexus NX 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · DX18 WLW

The vehicle is currently in good roadworthiness, but the MOT history reveals a clear pattern of progressive wear that has not been adequately addressed. The most recent test on 2025-08-04 was passed at 63,117 miles, which is consistent with the vehicle's age and usage profile. However, this record is preceded by a series of failures, specifically the offside rear and front tyres, the offside windscreen wiper blade, and the nearside front tyre, indicating that the vehicle has not been maintained at a level that allows for safe operation. The mileage accumulation is significant, with the tester noting that the vehicle has exceeded 100,000 miles in less than three years, representing a rapid rate of wear that is not typical for an 8-year-old car. While the initial MOTs were clean, the subsequent failures suggest that the vehicle has not been adequately serviced, leading to a potential increase in the risk of future mechanical failures. Given the recurring issues with the tyre wear, the wiper blade, and the lack of a recent comprehensive MOT, the buyer should inspect the car for structural integrity and mechanical components. The tester should verify that the suspension bushes and coil springs are still functioning correctly, as the history indicates these are the most likely areas of concern given the frequent offside wear. Additionally, the brakes and drivetrain must be checked for any signs of corrosion or binding calipers, as the history suggests that these components may be approaching their limits.
