1998 Lexus GS300 3.0L Petrol · S670 EGX

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean pass record over the last five years. The most recent test on 22 October 2025 at 131,591 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a remarkably stable maintenance trend. This consistency suggests that the previous owners have proactively addressed issues and prevented the accumulation of mechanical faults typically seen on a vehicle of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 28-year-old Lexus, averaging approximately 4,700 miles per year. Between October 2021 and October 2024, the car covered 12,879 miles, showing a consistent usage pattern of roughly 4,300 miles annually. The recent jump of 9,320 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests indicates the vehicle remains in light but regular use. While low mileage reduces the mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine, it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and fluid seals. Despite the clean MOT history, a physical inspection must focus on components susceptible to age and low-use conditions. A buyer should check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these can perish or fatigue over time regardless of mileage. The chassis requires a close look for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, areas where older Japanese models often suffer from rust. Given the low mileage, verifying the brake discs for surface pitting and checking caliper seals is essential to ensure the system has not seized during periods of inactivity.
