2013 Subaru Legacy 2.5L Petrol · HRS 459

The 2025‑11‑26 MOT at 49,921 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle’s current roadworthiness remains stable. All preceding tests from March 2024 through November 2025 also recorded no failures, indicating a consistent maintenance record. At 13 years old, the recorded 49,921 miles equate to roughly 3,840 miles per year, a figure below the typical usage for a car of this age and suggesting periods of limited driving. The interval between the 2025‑11‑22 test (49,918 miles) and the 2025‑11‑26 test (49,921 miles) shows only three miles covered in four days, indicating the car has been stationary or used minimally since the previous inspection. The progression from 42,291 miles in December 2022 to 45,666 miles in March 2024 represents an average annual increase of about 3,375 miles, while the later rise to 49,921 miles by November 2025 adds another 4,255 miles per year, a steady but moderate accumulation. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components that commonly show wear on a 2013 Legacy: suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion, brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, and the condition of the exhaust system and chassis for rust, especially around the wheel arches and sills. Tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition should also be examined, as low mileage does not guarantee absence of wear. Although the MOT history records no failures, a physical inspection is essential to verify that the low mileage has not masked emerging problems, and to confirm that any previously noted advisories have been fully rectified before purchase.
