2010 Subaru Impreza 2.5L Petrol · GL10 HLO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean MOT pass on 10 June 2025 at 72,459 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a single minor failure recorded just twelve days prior. That failure at 72,386 miles was due to a structural bulge in the offside front tyre, which was clearly rectified immediately, suggesting the current owner is attentive to safety-critical defects when identified by the tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between 2022 and 2025, with the car covering 12,000 miles over that three-year period. While low mileage generally preserves drivetrain components, it often invites issues with rubber components, as evidenced in the June 2022 test at 60,528 miles where both rear tyres showed cracking and inner-edge wear. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the tyres and suspension components, as the history indicates a tendency for dry rot and potential misalignment from uneven wear. Given the low mileage, it is vital to check the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs which may perish over time regardless of distance driven. Additionally, the chassis should be inspected for structural corrosion, a common concern for Subaru vehicles of this era that has not yet been highlighted in the MOT advisories.
