2007 Lexus IS300 3.3L Hybrid electric · RK07 ZPX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in October 2025 at 114,573 miles with no recorded defects. This represents an improving maintenance trend following a period of significant mechanical advisories. Between 2022 and 2024, the vehicle showed recurring issues with suspension components and corrosion, but the lack of advisories in the latest inspection suggests the current owner has addressed the critical failing items identified in previous years. At approximately 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 114,573 miles reflects an annual average of roughly 6,000 miles, which is consistent with low-mileage patterns. The data shows steady usage, with approximately 3,000 miles covered between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests, and another 3,300 miles between 2023 and 2024. This consistent interval suggests the car is used regularly which helps prevents rubber components and seals from degrading due to long periods of inactivity. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear sub-frame and fuel lines, as these were flagged as corroded in 2022, 2023, and 2024. While the tester noted the corrosion was not yet seriously weakened, the persistence of this issue indicates a vulnerability to structural rust on the chassis. The front suspension, specifically the lower arm ball joints and track rod ends, showed severe deterioration of dust covers in 2024. These should be verified for grease leakage or play movement to ensure they were replaced as required by that test.
