1992 Subaru Impreza 2.0L Petrol · K347 PHT

This 1992 Subaru Impreza presents a mixed picture. The recorded mileage of 47,996 miles is exceptionally low for a 34-year-old vehicle, averaging just 1,412 miles per year. This suggests either very light use or extended periods of storage, both of which carry their own risks. The most recent MOT from April 2023 shows the vehicle passed, but with several advisories that warrant attention. Brake disc wear with pitting and scoring was noted, though not deemed serious enough to fail. Both front and rear anti-roll bar linkages showed wear in their pins or bushes, again without excessive movement. A coolant leak was also recorded. These are not catastrophic failures, but they indicate the suspension and cooling system need monitoring. What stands out most is the mileage inconsistency in the MOT history. The vehicle showed 47,996 miles in April 2023, yet earlier records from 2019 show 147,000 miles, and records from 2009 and 2010 show mileage in the 141,000 to 146,000 range.
