Expert automotive synthesis from historical MOT defect records and market benchmarks.
Our Verdict
Proceed with caution but generally a solid prospect. While the MOT history is largely clean, the brief failure in April 2024 requires clarification before committing to the purchase.
When inspecting this specific hybrid, your primary focus should be on the 2024 MOT failure. Although the record shows 'No defects recorded' for the subsequent pass, you should ask the seller exactly what caused the failure on 2024-04-08 to ensure it wasn't a recurring mechanical or safety issue.
Given the age and mileage of this 2007 model, check for any signs of hybrid battery degradation, as this is a common consideration for older Lexus hybrid vehicles. Additionally, verify the service history to see if the high-voltage cooling system filters have been cleaned or replaced, which is vital for the longevity of the hybrid powertrain.
As a hybrid, the 400h offers improved fuel economy compared to traditional V6 petrol engines, though actual costs will depend on your driving style and how often you use the electric motor. Tax bands for 2007 hybrid models vary, so check the specific DVLA rating for this registration.
Insurance groups for Lexus vehicles tend to be mid-range, and maintenance costs for this model are generally influenced by the complexity of the hybrid system. Expect typical maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age, with potential premium costs if hybrid-specific components require attention.
Directly address the April 2024 MOT failure; even though the record shows no defects at the passing stage, you must identify the specific reason for the initial failure at 113,865 miles.
Beyond the MOT history, inspect the hybrid battery's performance during a test drive, looking for smooth transitions between petrol and electric modes. Check the condition of the braking system, as hybrid regenerative braking can sometimes lead to different wear patterns on pads and discs compared to conventional cars.
This 2007 Lexus 400h in blue has covered 121,468 miles since its first registration in March 2007. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, with four passing and one failure recorded in April 2024 at 113,865 miles. The most recent test in April 2025 was completed with no defects recorded.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Lexus 400h to provide a statistical comparison.
