2018 Lexus IS 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · FN68 ACU

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 29 May 2026 at 51,389 miles, confirming current roadworthiness. The maintenance trend is stable. The only fault recorded was minor: nearside and offside front tyres showing cord on the inner edges of the tread, a consumable wear item rather than a structural defect. No other defects or advisories were noted, continuing a clean run of annual tests. Mileage accumulation is consistent and moderate. Over eight years, the car averaged roughly 6,424 miles annually, with no evidence of rapid usage spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gap between the May 2025 and May 2026 tests was standard, and mileage rose predictably from 37,827 to 51,389 miles. The record is sparse but clean, with no failures or recurring mechanical faults. A buyer should inspect the front tyres closely, as uneven inner-edge wear suggests possible tracking misalignment or suspension bush wear. Check the front brake discs and suspension struts for related wear, though no brake or suspension faults have been flagged. Given the car's age and low mileage, verify that the hybrid battery and cooling systems are functioning normally, and confirm there is no hidden corrosion beneath the vehicle, particularly around the front subframe and exhaust mounting points.
