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 22 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 24,471 miles. The most critical issue is a complete absence of MOT records for 2020, a significant red flag for a 19-year-old vehicle.

The mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage, averaging only 4,276 miles per year, with a critical anomaly of only 387 miles recorded between June 2024 and June 2025.

Things to check

  • Complete MOT gap: No MOT recorded for 2020 — a critical 19-year-old vehicle.
  • Recurring Major Failures: Engine and lights failed repeatedly (4 major failures, 4 major failures).
  • Recurring Major Failures: Exhaust and anti-roll bar link failed repeatedly (6 tests, 5 tests).
  • Recurring Major Failures: Tyres and brakes failed repeatedly (6 tests, 6 tests).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until June 2026: Current MOT status is valid, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No mileage fraud: While usage is low, there are no recorded mileage decreases or suspicious round numbers.
  • Consistent retesting: All failures were immediately rectified and retested, indicating responsive ownership.
