2013 Lexus RX 450H F Sport CVT 3.5L Hybrid electric · LG13 AYM

The vehicle's current roadworthiness is currently passing, with the most recent MOT test on 2026-03-18 at 92,404 miles showing a passing grade for the suspension arm pin and bush, though the offside rear tyre is noted as worn close to the legal limit. This indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the previous passing test on 2025-01-14 at 83,540 miles confirms the suspension arm pin or bush condition remained acceptable, suggesting the vehicle has not experienced a significant deterioration in suspension integrity since the last test. The mileage profile suggests a pattern of accumulation over the last two years, with the vehicle averaging approximately 41,202 miles per year. This is consistent with typical usage for a 2013 model, but the rapid increase in mileage since the 2024-01-11 test implies a potential lack of regular maintenance. The gap between the 2024-01-11 and 2025-01-14 tests, where the vehicle failed on the rear brake pad despite passing on the 2025-01-14 test, indicates a likely gap in routine servicing that could lead to accelerated wear on critical components. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and braking performance at the time of purchase. While the suspension arm pin and bush are currently acceptable, the repeated failure of the rear brake pad to meet the 1.5 mm minimum thickness standard on multiple occasions suggests that the braking system may be under stress. The lack of sharp projections on doors and the presence of a multiple light source warning indicate that minor cosmetic or electrical issues have not compromised the structural integrity of the body. However, the history of repeated brake pad failures and the lack of a passing MOT on the rear brake pad in 2024 raise serious concerns regarding the reliability of the rear brakes and the need for immediate inspection of the brake disc and pad thickness.
