2007 Lexus IS220 2.2L Diesel · ET07 KXH

The 2007 Lexus IS220 presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no recorded defects across its available MOT history. The most recent test on 15 November 2021 at 162,553 miles returned a pass with no advisories, confirming the vehicle left its last inspection in sound mechanical condition. Five consecutive passes with zero faults indicate the previous keeper maintained the car to a standard that satisfied DVSA testers. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical 8,555 miles per year for a 19-year-old vehicle. The record shows 84,653 miles on 20 December 2016, rising to 98,898 by 30 April 2018, then 123,953 on 16 May 2019, 155,508 on 14 November 2020, and 162,553 on 15 November 2021. A gap exists between the December 2016 and April 2018 entries, suggesting a missed or unrecorded 2017 test, though subsequent annual tests resumed without issue. The final two years added only 7,045 miles, pointing to reduced use before sale. The clean MOT history offers no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion issues to chase up. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust given the vehicle's age and the five-year lapse since the last test. Standing periods implied by low recent mileage can hide perished rubber components and seized calipers not captured on the record. Check tyre sidewall condition, exhaust emissions under load, and fluid intervals before purchase. The absence of advisories does not exempt a 162,553-mile Lexus from consumable wear invisible to the MOT snapshot.
