AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Lexus has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 34,826 miles. While mileage is low, the vehicle's age and history of neglect warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,099 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2019 onwards, including periods of very low or no mileage.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2019-09-09 after ADVISORY on 2018-07-2018.
  • MAJOR suspension arm failure on 2025-12-10 after 9+ years of advisories.
  • Recurring MAJOR light failures (2022-12-01, 2023-12-01, 2024-12-01, 2025-12-01).
  • Recurring MAJOR tyre failures (2022-12-01, 2023-12-01, 2024-12-01, 2025-12-01).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2018): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-11, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (6,099 miles/year) suggests light use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
