2004 Subaru Impreza 2.0L Petrol · HW04 MDN

The most recent MOT in August 2022 passed with no defects recorded. There is a recurring mechanical pattern noted across the MOT history concerning the exhaust system, with previous entries noting noise and a minor leak of exhaust gases. The trend in the MOT history does not show a clear worsening or improving pattern, as the vehicle has passed subsequent inspections despite these noted exhaust issues. The mileage of 100,639 miles for a vehicle of this age suggests a moderate level of use, which could indicate regular driving or potentially longer periods of standing, making the wear on consumables and drivetrain components a relevant consideration. A buyer should first thoroughly inspect the exhaust system for any ongoing noise or leaks. Secondly, a detailed check of the suspension components and brake wear should be performed due to the age and mileage. Finally, given the history, a close examination of any visible bodywork or underbody corrosion is recommended.
