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

This 2004 Subaru has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 35,105 miles. While mileage is low, the pattern of issues and a 22-year age warrant significant caution.

The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 5,887 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., +3,503 miles between Nov 2018 and Dec 2019).

Things to check

  • Dec 2019: Failed MOT with no defect details, indicating a serious underlying issue.
  • Jan 2023: Failed MOT with no defect details, suggesting a recurring problem.
  • Nov 2018: Passed MOT with advisories on both rear tyres and both rear anti-roll bar ball joints, indicating significant wear.
  • Dec 2021: Passed MOT with advisories on both front tyres and a distorted nearside front road wheel bead rim.

Working in its favour

  • Passed 3 of 5 MOT tests, showing some periods of roadworthiness.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage trajectory.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) indicates good safety features.
