2013 Lexus RX 3.5L Hybrid electric · LL63 FNJ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 4 October 2025 at 34,979 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance profile. This trend of perfection suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard where mechanical and structural failures are avoided during the annual testing process. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,700 miles per year. Between November 2021 and October 2025, the car covered only 8,774 miles, with a notable gap of 1,289 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests. This low usage suggests the vehicle may have been restricted to short journeys. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components, it increases the risk of age-related degradation and component seizing due to lack of regular movement. Despite the clean record, a buyer must inspect for specific issues common with low-mileage vehicles. The physical inspection should check for cracking in the sidewalls of tyres and perished suspension bushes, which occur regardless of tread depth. Because the car has sat infrequently, the buyer should verify that the brake calipers are not seized and the discs are free of pitting. The chassis should be examined for surface corrosion, as long periods of stationary can lead to moisture retention in structural areas.
