2013 Lexus CT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · MF13 ABO

The Lexus CT presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 9 October 2025 at 85,638 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior annual examinations from October 2024, October 2023 and September 2022 similarly logged passes with zero advisories. The sole anomaly appears on 20 September 2022 where the vehicle failed and passed on the same day at 69,131 miles, both entries showing no defects. This points to an administrative or documentation irregularity rather than a mechanical fault. Overall the test history shows no worsening condition and no recurring defects. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical use for a 2013 model. The odometer advanced from 69,131 miles at the September 2022 test to 74,831 by October 2023, then 81,008 by October 2024, and 85,638 by October 2025. That equates to roughly 5,700, 6,177 and 4,630 miles in successive twelve-month periods, a gentle annual average near 6,000 miles. The record is sparse but clean, offering four consecutive clear passes across three years with no gap exceeding thirteen months. Such consistency implies the previous keeper adhered to timely annual testing and likely addressed any consumable wear before thresholds. Buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components despite the unblemished test ledger. The tester recorded no worn suspension bushes, fractured coil springs, binding calipers or corroded brake discs at any interval, yet rubber bushes and dampers on a thirteen-year-old vehicle may exhibit latent degradation not yet breaching MOT limits. Examine structural integrity beneath sills and subframes for rust, verify exhaust emissions under load, and assess tyre tread and wiper blades for natural perishing. The unexplained fail entry on 20 September 2022 warrants a check of V5C documentation and DVSA records to confirm no suppressed defect. Clean advisory-free history suggests basic upkeep was not skipped, contrasting with vehicles that fail on tyre tread or lamps. Absence of advisories does not equate to new-car condition, so a pre-purchase inspection remains prudent for this Lexus CT.
