2016 Subaru Outback 2.0L Diesel · AF66 FET

The 2016 Subaru Outback presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 July 2025 at 110,780 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since at least 2021. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, advisories, or repeated failures across the five-year record. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old vehicle. The records show 98,388 miles in July 2021, rising to 101,854 by August 2022, 105,187 by August 2023, 107,582 by July 2024, and 110,780 by July 2025. That equates to roughly 3,000 miles per year over the last four tests, well below the 11,000 annual average implied by the total. The sparse, fault-free history gives no evidence of neglect or deferred consumable replacement caught by testers. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection before purchase. The MOT record flags no corrosion, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues, but the box-section sills, subframes, and rear suspension mounts on a 2016 Outback can harbour structural rust unseen in a pass result. Verify the condition of tyres, wiper blades, and brake calipers for binding, as these consumables fall outside the recorded data. The previous owner clearly kept the car to a light-use schedule with consistent yearly testing. No recurring mechanical trend requires corrective action today, though pre-sale checks on underside integrity remain prudent given the vehicle's age.
