Our Verdict
This 2014 Lexus IS hybrid presents a generally clean MOT history with low risk indicators for a buyer. Aside from a single failure overturned three days later in late 2025, its record shows consistent passes without recorded advisories.
When inspecting this Lexus IS, verify the paperwork supporting the October 2025 MOT failure and subsequent pass on 112,026 and 112,039 miles respectively to understand what remedial action was taken. Check the service history for regular maintenance of both the 2.494L petrol engine and the hybrid electric drive system. Given the white exterior paint, inspect closely for any paint mismatch, stone chipping on the front bumper, and signs of parking scuffs.
Equipped with a 2.494L hybrid electric powertrain, this Lexus IS benefits from favorable fuel economy in urban and mixed driving environments compared to traditional petrol equivalents. Vehicle Excise Duty (road tax) will depend on its specific carbon emissions band for the 2014 registration year, and it sits within a competitive insurance group for executive hybrid saloons. Typical maintenance costs should account for standard consumable replacements such as tyres, brakes, and eventual hybrid component checks.
Pay close attention to common model-wide wear points identified across aggregate UK data, specifically tyres, headlamp condition, and windscreen wiper blades. Although the MOT history shows no advisory notes over the last four tests, physically inspect the brake discs, pads, and suspension components for wear appropriate to the 112,039-mile odometer reading. Test all hybrid charging functions, regenerative braking performance, and interior electrical features.
First registered in September 2014 and finished in white, this 2.494L hybrid electric Lexus IS has covered 112,039 miles according to its latest October 2025 test. The vehicle's MOT record includes four straight passes from 2022 to 2025, with one isolated failure in October 2025 that was rectified and passed three days later. With an above-average mileage for its age, it demonstrates typical usage patterns for a executive hybrid saloon.
The Lexus IS model demonstrates strong aggregate reliability with an average MOT pass rate of 90.5%, though buyers should monitor common wear items like tyres, headlamps, and wipers.
