2020 Lexus ES 300H F Sport CVT 2.5L Electric · R5 USK

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT test on 10 July 2024 at 35,160 miles with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating it met all statutory roadworthiness standards at that point. The maintenance history, as evidenced by the official record, shows a stable outcome with a clean pass, though the data is extremely sparse, consisting of only this single test entry. The recorded mileage of 35,160 miles over approximately six years represents an average of roughly 5,860 miles per year, which is significantly lower than the UK average. This low annual accumulation suggests either very light use or extended periods of inactivity. There are no rapid mileage increases or significant gaps between tests to analyse, as the history provides only one data point. Such low usage can reduce wear on consumable items like brake pads and tyres, but it may also increase the risk of age-related deterioration in rubber components, seals, and the hybrid battery system. A buyer should therefore conduct a focused physical inspection beyond the MOT certificate. Particular attention must be paid to the condition of all tyres for age-related cracking, even if tread depth is adequate. The hybrid battery's health and the state of the 12-volt auxiliary battery should be verified, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from insufficient charging cycles. Inspect the brake discs for potential surface corrosion from disuse and examine suspension bushes and exhaust components for any signs of deterioration. Finally, a full diagnostic scan is essential to check for any stored electronic control unit faults that may not have triggered an MOT failure but indicate underlying issues.
