2018 Lexus NX 2.5L Hybrid electric · GU68 OEV

This 2018 Lexus NX has covered 60,653 miles over roughly eight years, which represents typical usage for its age at around 7,500 miles per year. The mileage-to-age ratio suggests moderate, steady use rather than heavy or prolonged standing. The MOT record shows a generally clean history with one clear wear pattern emerging. Between 2021 and 2023, the vehicle passed without defects recorded. However, the September 2023 test flagged both front brake disc wear and front brake pad thinning, indicating the braking system was approaching service limits at that point. These components were not mentioned in the subsequent 2024 test, which came back completely clear, suggesting either maintenance was carried out or the wear had stabilised. The most recent MOT from October 2025 now reveals tyre wear as the primary concern. The offside rear inner tyre is worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear, a pattern that typically points to either under-inflation, suspension geometry issues, or aggressive cornering. Tyre edge wear specifically warrants investigation because it can indicate misalignment or worn suspension components that may need correction rather than simple tyre replacement. The trend overall appears stable rather than worsening.
