2022 Levc TX 1.5L Hybrid electric · LD22 FBF

The most recent MOT test on 30 September 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. Reviewing the full history since 2023, the maintenance trend is remarkably stable, with only a single minor failure for a windscreen wiper blade in September 2024. This lack of recurring advisories or structural failures indicates a vehicle that has likely been subject to a rigorous maintenance regime, which is essential for a professional hire vehicle. The recorded mileage of 94,007 miles is significantly high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 23,502 miles per annum. Such rapid mileage accumulation is characteristic of urban taxi duty and implies a high degree of wear on all primary consumables and chassis components. While the MOT history is clean, the mechanical stress associated with this level of usage means the vehicle is approaching a phase where major wear-and-tear components will require replacement regardless of their current pass status. Given the high mileage and clean MOT record, a physical inspection should focus on components that do not always trigger an MOT failure until they are completely exhausted. Pay close attention to the suspension bushes and coil springs, listening for any clunks or knocks during low-speed manoeuvres or over speed bumps. Inspect the brake discs for significant lip wear and check for binding calipers, as the stop-start nature of urban driving puts immense strain on the braking system. Ensure the tyres exhibit even wear across the tread, as uneven patterns would suggest misalignment or worn steering rack components. It is critical to verify the service history against the manufacturer's intervals, specifically regarding the range extender engine and its associated cooling system. Check for any signs of fluid leaks around the drivetrain and verify the health of the 12V auxiliary battery, which often degrades under high-cycle usage. Finally, examine the interior upholstery and switchgear for excessive wear, as the physical condition of the cabin often mirrors the mechanical fatigue of a high-mileage professional vehicle.
