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 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 45,562 miles. This fundamental problem makes the vehicle unroadworthy and illegal to drive.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,906 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.

Things to check

  • MOT status: Not valid (as of Oct 2020), with expiry 2021-10-25 — over 3 years ago.
  • MOT expiry date: 2021-10-25 (Oct 2020) — vehicle is not legally roadworthy.
  • Dangerous defect: Nearside Rear Shock absorber has a light misting of oil (May 2011) — indicates wear.
  • Recurring failures: Tyres (5 advisories), brakes (2 failures), suspension (4 advisories) — consistent wear patterns.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent mileage: 7,906 miles/year, aligning with UK average and no fraud indicators.
  • No major recurring failures: All major failures were immediately rectified and passed subsequent tests.
  • Recent clean pass: Oct 2020 retest PASS after initial failure — demonstrates owner's responsiveness.
  • Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars (2024) — indicates strong safety features for its era.
