How many Lexus GS 250s are left in Great Britain?
There were 566 Lexus GS 250s licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 29 declared off the road (SORN).
That is 16.5% fewer than the peak of 678 in 2013.
There were not enough MOT tests of Lexus GS 250s in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.
Lexus GS 250 registrations over time
Registrations of Lexus GS 250s for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 414 in 2013. In 2025, 0 were registered. With almost none registered new, the number on the road is likely to keep falling.

How we use engine sizes.

Official figures from laboratory type-approval tests. VCA says they may not be achieved in
real-world driving, and should not be used to rank cars with similar figures.
Engine sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1 litre. A version is one line in
VCA’s data (description, gearbox, engine and fuel), counted once however many years it was
listed.
Matched from VCA’s model names “GS, MY2014”, “GS, MY2012”, “GS MY2012”. How we use VCA’s figures.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Lexus GS 250. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or
incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a
dealer. How we match recalls to models.
