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

This 2007 Subaru has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 31,277 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with periods of very low usage and a suspiciously high initial jump.

The mileage shows a normal average of 6,250 miles/year, but a critical anomaly: an unusually high 26,958 miles/year from Jan 2007 to May 2011, followed by suspiciously low usage (40 mi/yr equivalent) before Jun 2021.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Dec 2018, Dec 2019) and front/rear brake pad advisories (Dec 2019) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Major emissions failure (exhaust leak, lambda reading) on 2012-06-01, a serious safety concern.
  • Unusually high initial mileage (26,958 mi/yr equivalent) from Jan 2007 to May 2011, followed by very low usage (40 mi/yr equivalent) before Jun 2021.
  • Suspiciously low mileage recorded before Jun 2023 (438 mi/yr equivalent) and Jun 2024 (73 mi/yr equivalent).

Working in its favour

  • Current valid MOT until 2026-07-01, indicating it is roadworthy now.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded in the last 3 years.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 6,250 miles/year since 2011, suggesting regular use.
  • No recurring failures in critical safety systems like brakes or suspension beyond advisories.
