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

This 2015 Subaru has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 28,562 miles. The vehicle's SORN status and lack of a current MOT require immediate verification.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,281 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a significant 3,923-mile period in 2021 warrants clarification.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension advisories (2021, 2023) indicate ongoing wear and potential future costs.
  • Recurring brake advisories (2020, 2023) suggest a pattern of maintenance needs.
  • Two DANGEROUS tyre failures (Feb 2021) and a MINOR tyre defect (Feb 2020) highlight a history of tyre neglect.
  • Major engine/oil failure (Feb 2021) and major emissions failure (Feb 2021) are significant past issues.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 11,281 miles/year, indicating regular use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
  • The most recent MOT (Jul 2023) passed without any major failures or dangerous defects.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) confirms high safety standards for this model.
