B9 AXN MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2017 Subaru Levorg (B9 AXN) between December 2023 and July 2026.
The record contains 4 passes and 1 failure.
The most recent test on 03 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (7 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Brakes (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 8 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.

Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle
Focus your attention on the chassis and braking systems. The December 2024 failure for both front and rear brake pads indicates that these components were left to wear down to less than 1.5mm. You should verify in the service history whether the discs were replaced alongside the pads or merely skimmed.
Additionally, the recent advisories for corroded rear coil springs are a point for negotiation. Corrosion is a progressive issue that will eventually lead to failure, so factor the cost of replacement springs into your offer. Ensure that the tyre issues noted in 2023, 2024, and 2026 have been addressed with a quality set of matched tyres rather than budget replacements.
The 1.6L petrol engine paired with Subaru's permanent all-wheel-drive system generally results in higher fuel consumption than comparable front-wheel-drive estates. Maintenance costs are typically higher for this model due to the complexity of the AWD drivetrain and the requirement for specific parts.
Annual costs will include a mid-range road tax band for 2017 petrol vehicles and insurance premiums consistent with a performance-oriented estate. Expect higher-than-average expenditure on tyres, as AWD systems often require matching sets to avoid drivetrain strain.
Prioritise an inspection of the rear suspension; specifically, look for visible rust or flaking on the rear coil springs as highlighted in the July 2026 MOT. Check the front suspension arm bushes and rear anti-roll bar bushes, which were flagged as worn in December 2024, to see if they have since been replaced.
Inspect all four tyres for uneven wear or damage, particularly the offside front and rear, which have been repeatedly flagged for wear and damage. Finally, check the current thickness of the brake pads to ensure the 2024 failures were rectified with high-quality components.
This 2017 white Subaru Levorg has recorded 87,766 miles. The MOT history is marked by a failure in December 2024 due to critically worn brake pads and tyres, and the most recent July 2026 test flags corrosion on both rear coil springs. It is a functional example of the model, but the data suggests a reactive approach to maintenance.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Subaru Levorg to establish a wider reliability pattern.
