2004 Lexus RX300 3.0L Petrol · LW04 XEH

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with all five MOT tests from 2022 to 2026 passing without defects. The most recent 2026 test at 149,398 miles confirmed no issues, aligning with the prior four consecutive passes. This consistency suggests the owner maintained the vehicle to meet legal standards, with no emerging mechanical or structural concerns flagged in the recorded tests. The absence of advisories or failures indicates no urgent repairs were required during this period. The mileage progression reflects a steady annual accumulation of approximately 6,791 miles, matching typical usage for a 22-year-old vehicle. Gaps between tests range from 11 to 13 months, consistent with standard MOT intervals. No significant jumps or prolonged inactivity periods are evident in the data, implying regular use without extended storage. The clean MOT history through five consecutive years suggests no major component failures or corrosion issues were detected, though this does not preclude routine wear in areas not tested under MOT requirements. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system, including bushes and coil springs, for age-related wear, as these components are not assessed during MOTs. Brake discs and calipers should also be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as prolonged use can degrade these parts. Structural integrity remains unconfirmed by the records, so a thorough underbody inspection for rust or damage is recommended. While the MOT data shows no immediate risks, the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant a detailed pre-purchase examination of non-MOT elements to ensure long-term reliability.
