2024 Levc TX 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · LP73 PKD

A clean, two-test MOT record with zero advisories and zero failures speaks well of the structural and safety condition of this LEVC TX, with the most recent assessment on 4 February 2026 confirming a pass against the standard DVSA roadworthiness criteria. For a commercial vehicle of this type, originally designed for intensive taxi work, a record devoid of any flagged wear items is notable. No advisories have been raised on suspension components, brake systems, tyres, lights, or structure, which suggests that none of the consumable or monitoring items had degraded to the threshold required to be recorded at either test. The trend across the recorded tests is one of stability, with no recurring problem areas and no deterioration in the pattern of defects between visits. Where attention must be drawn is the mileage profile. Covering 55,747 miles in roughly two years equates to an annual accumulation of approximately 27,874 miles, which is far in excess of typical private passenger use and is consistent with continuous commercial or taxi duty. This kind of high-intensity utilisation places considerably greater demand on brake friction material, discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, wheel bearings, driveshaft joints, and underbody protection than would be expected from a lower-mileage example. Despite the absence of recorded advisories, the mechanical wear accumulated internally and on components not specifically inspected under MOT, such as the rear electric drive system, hub assemblies, and door mechanism pivots, will be substantial. A prospective buyer should treat this vehicle as one that has effectively lived a full commercial working life already, even at only two years old. Given that no specific component has been flagged by previous tests, a physical inspection should focus on the areas that suffer most under heavy urban mileage. On a test drive, listen for any knocking or clonking from the front suspension over uneven surfaces, particularly around the lower control arms and anti-roll bar links, as these are typical wear points on high-mileage commercial vehicles. Check for pulling under braking, vibration through the pedal, or any grinding sensation that might indicate brake disc lipping or pad wear approaching the replacement threshold, and inspect the discs visually for a sharp outer edge. The steering should feel consistent without excessive play or clunks when turning lock to lock, as worn track rod ends or drop links can develop quietly between MOTs. The bodywork, subframe, and underfloor structure should be examined on a ramp or over a pit for any surface corrosion or impact damage that might have developed since the last test, particularly given the taxi operating environment where kerb strikes and pothole exposure are common. Inspect the nearside and offside door hinges and the rear passenger door mechanisms for play or sagging, as these are heavily cycled components on this model. Examine the tyres closely for uneven shoulder wear, which would indicate alignment or suspension geometry issues. Finally, request a full service history with documented brake fluid changes and suspension component inspections, as the absence of MOT advisories does not preclude the need for proactive maintenance on a vehicle that has covered this level of mileage in such a short period.
