Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This 2010 Subaru Forester has a typical mileage profile for its age, suggesting consistent use rather than prolonged periods of standing. However, the MOT history reveals a concerning trend of recurring and emerging issues. The most recent test in May 2026 passed, but it highlights three persistent advisories: worn and pitted rear brake discs, a corroded rear sub-frame, and a new oil leak. The brake and sub-frame issues have been present since at least April 2025, indicating that these faults are being monitored but not repaired. The vehicle's condition trend is worsening. While previous failures were related to easily adjustable headlamp aiming, the addition of an oil leak in the latest report suggests new mechanical degradation. The persistent corrosion on the rear sub-frame is a significant long-term risk for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should first inspect the rear sub-frame for the extent of the corrosion and check for signs of active oil leaks. You should also verify the condition of the rear brake discs and ensure the headlamp levelling system is now fully functional.
