2019 Lexus NX 2.5L Hybrid electric · LC19 GAX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test on 24 March 2026 at 20,539 miles resulted in a failure due to a missing offside front road wheel fixing, which was rectified immediately to secure a pass. While the overall mechanical condition appears stable, the record shows that the owner only addresses faults once they trigger an MOT failure rather than performing regular deep maintenance or preventative inspections. At approximately seven years old, the recorded mileage of 20,539 miles is exceptionally low, averaging just under 3,000 miles per annum. There is a significant discrepancy in the data provided, as the April 2024 test recorded 21,879 miles, while the March 2026 test shows only 20,539 miles. This mileage reversal of over 1,300 miles across two years suggests a clerical error in the recording or tampering. Low-mile vehicles often suffer from secondary degradation of rubber components, brake discs, and fluid chemistry due to lack of heat cycles and movement. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the tyres and wipers, as the 2025 test flagged a nearside front tyre worn to the legal limit and the 2024 test identified defective wiper blades. Given the low usage, it is vital to check the brake rotors for surface corrosion or seized calipers, which frequently occur when vehicles sit for long periods. Verify the wheel bolts on the offside front to ensure the replacement following the March 2026 failure was secure and has not caused damage to the hub threads.
