What buyers ask about the LEXUS IS 350
Was this 2008 LEXUS IS 350 damaged before?

Can I trust the odometer reading of 203 311 mi?
It is the figure as recorded, not verified. Compare it with the earlier readings in the full report: they can only go up, so a drop points to a wound-back odometer.
In which countries was this car registered?
Registrations abroad seldom reach local registers. If this car was registered in other countries, the full report names them.

VIN JTHBE262X85018677: history
This Lexus IS 350 is a 2008 model, finished in silver. Under the bonnet is a 3.5-litre petrol engine producing 306 hp. The drivetrain combines an automatic gearbox with rear-wheel drive. The specification is taken from the source data.
The recorded mileage is 203,311 miles. The figure is in miles and needs converting before it is compared with kilometres: one mile is about 1.6 km. Turning back an odometer takes little skill and leaves no visible trace, which is why earlier figures matter more than the display.
Primary damage in the record: front end. Whether the damage has been repaired since, and how well, is not something a damage entry can show.
A note in the source data says the car did not run. An engine that will not start could have a simple electrical fault or internal damage, and only diagnostic work can tell which. A key is on file for the car. A condition note describes the car at one moment; months of standing or later work on the car can change the picture in either direction.
The record shows a clean title. There is no salvage or similar mark, so the car was never recorded as a total loss.
A car’s history is the sum of what has happened to it since it was new, and most of it has left a trace on paper somewhere. A car’s past rarely shows on the paintwork: a well-repaired accident or water damage that was dried out is easy to miss.
When a car does not run, a compression test and the condition of the oil tell a mechanic whether the engine can be brought back to life. On a petrol engine, spark plugs, ignition coils and the cooling system are the routine items a service history should cover. On a car that does not run, the automatic gearbox cannot be judged on the road; the colour and smell of its fluid and a diagnostic scan give the first clues.
The tenth character of the VIN stands for the model year, and the eleventh for the plant that built the car. The VIN on file for this car is JTHBE262X85018677. Scratches, fresh paint or a replaced plate around the VIN markings are warning signs in their own right.
A VIN report shows what has been logged: earlier registrations, odometer figures, damage entries, branded titles and theft checks, wherever such data exists. No report is complete: a repair done privately and never claimed on insurance leaves nothing to find. A history report says nothing about the car’s present condition: the frame, corrosion, electrics and the quality of any repair are judged on a lift by a mechanic. A history check on VIN JTHBE262X85018677 is the place to start.
