2011 Lexus IS250 2.5L Petrol · RK61 OVE

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on September 18, 2025, 97,817 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently cleared the test following minor electrical failures. While the 2025 test initially failed due to a position lamp and two reversing lamps, these issues were rectified immediately, suggesting the owner addresses basic compliance items as they arise during annual testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Between the 2023 test at 81,740 miles and the 2024 test at 89,459 miles, the car covered 7,719 miles, with another 8,358 miles recorded in the final year. This steady, low-intensity accumulation reduces the likelihood of excessive drivetrain wear but indicates that age and rubber components may take precedence over high-mileage fatigue. Although the MOT record lacks any advisories regarding structural corrosion or mechanical components, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the age-related wear. The recurring electrical faults in 2023 and 2025 suggest a need to check the condition of bulb sockets and wiring looms. Given the vehicle's age, the inspection should prioritize the suspension bushes and control arms for cracking, as these often degrade over time regardless of low mileage.
