2018 Lexus CT 1.8L Hybrid electric · LG68 RXW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record in recent testing. The most recent MOT test conducted in September 2025 at 51,539 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed. This transition from advisory to a clean pass suggests the current owner has been proactive with maintenance following the issues identified in earlier years. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the car covered 22,501 miles, showing a steady usage rate rather than periods of neglect or sudden spikes. This low annual mileage generally reduces the wear on the hybrid powertrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas previously noted during the September 2023 test at 35,895 miles. That record flagged low front brake pads and uneven wear on the inner edges of the rear tyres, which typically points to a suspension alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While the 2025 pass shows these faults were rectified, a professional check of the wheel geometry and the condition of the rear suspension arms is necessary to ensure the uneven wear has not returned.
