2007 Lexus IS250 2.5L Petrol · LR07 ELH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test on 8 August 2025 at 120,550 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one day prior at 120,518 miles. This specific failure showed no recorded defects, which likely indicates an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the retest. Since August 2022, the Lexus has maintained a clean history of passing tests without recurring mechanical or structural advisories. The mileage pattern aligns well with a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,345 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 104,804 miles and August 2025 at 120,550 miles, the car covered 15,746 miles, suggesting steady and predictable usage. The interval of 4,447 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests shows the vehicle is driven regularly, which is generally beneficial for preventing seals from drying and components from seizing due to long periods of standing. Because the MOT record lacks specific advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake calipers, or corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on common wear points not captured by the tester. A buyer should check the rear subframe for structural rust and inspect control arms for play, as these often do not fail until they reach significant degradation. Given the age and mileage, verifying the condition of the rubber bushings and the state of the brake discs for surface pitting is essential, as the lack of recorded faults suggests the previous owners were proactive with basic upkeep.
