2008 Lexus IS250 2.5L Petrol · FN58 NSK

The Lexus IS250 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 September 2025 at 92,412 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken four-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. The mileage pattern reflects light use for an 18-year-old vehicle. Recorded distances moved from 77,393 miles at the 3 August 2022 test to 79,988 miles in September 2023, then 83,244 miles by September 2024, and 92,412 miles by September 2025. Annual accumulation averaged roughly 5,134 miles, with the largest single-year jump of about 9,168 miles occurring between the 2024 and 2025 tests. The DVSA history shows no gaps and no failures, advisories, or recorded corrosion, brake, or suspension issues across the period. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT record does not confirm absence of hidden rust on a 2008 chassis. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant hands-on checks despite no tester flags, given the car's age and the likelihood of prolonged standing between drives. Low mileage combined with four consecutive clean passes suggests the previous keepers maintained the vehicle to a basic statutory standard. The absence of recurring advisories implies no worsening mechanical trend, though only an in-person examination can verify component condition beyond the test bay.
