Although a failure was recorded in March 2023 at 130,742 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests a minor repairable item that was rectified quickly without becoming a recurring mechanical trend. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the heavy-duty components components common to high-mileage Subaru models. While the MOT record is clean, the 145,000-mile mark necessitates a thorough check of suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of premature wear. Inspect the chassis for structural corrosion, as MOT tests only flag rust once it reaches a depth-specific failure threshold. Given the age and mileage, verifying the condition of the brake discs and the integrity of the exhaust system is essential to ensure the vehicle has not been neglected between the annual tests.
