Summary

Lexus IS 2005 VIN check

This page is a short report on the Lexus IS 2005: VIN JTHBB262402001808, production year 2005, mileage 250k km, diesel engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $5,850. Such a check helps to quickly understand how well a specific car matches the market, whether the price looks suspiciously low and whether the mileage is typical for this year.

Insight: The car is over 15 years old — running costs are higher; the key inspection points are the body and anti-corrosion treatment. Diesel — the condition of the fuel system and the DPF matters.

Market position

Based on current data, year ±2). Market prices range from $6,270 to $9,452 with a median of $8,000, and this offer is below the market: 27% under the median. This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and possible bargaining.

Insight: The price is abnormally low — a higher risk of hidden problems.

History & registrations

The report includes state registry data: owners — 7, transfers — 5, plate changes — 2, years in the registry — under a year. The latest recorded operation: Sold to a new owner on 27.10.2023. This data helps to assess the legal transparency of the car before buying.

Insight: Many owners (7) — frequent resales usually have a reason. The plate was changed 2 times — such changes can split the history into separate episodes. The car appeared in Ukraine recently — the history is short, its origin matters.
