2016 Lexus IS 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · FH65 EGC

The 2016 Lexus IS presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 20 December 2025 at 299,648 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing no advisories or failures in any entry. Annual mileage averages roughly 29,965 per year against a ten-year life, which is high for the model and points to sustained motorway or business use rather than short urban trips. The records show steady accumulation: 147,593 miles in January 2022, 182,912 in January 2023, 216,079 in January 2024, 255,479 in December 2024, then 299,648 in December 2025. No gaps exceed thirteen months, and the DVSA data is sparse in detail but consistently clean. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the distance covered. High-mileage Lexus IS units often develop worn rear trailing arm bushes and tired dampers that a basic MOT may pass until play becomes excessive. Check underneath for corrosion on structural members and subframes, and verify the service history covers transmission and coolant intervals. The absence of recorded advisories does not mean consumables are fresh; at nearly 300,000 miles, tyres, wiper blades, and brake pad life need physical confirmation before purchase.
