2012 Subaru BRZ 2.0L Petrol · KE12 GPY

The 2021 MOT, the most recent entry, recorded no defects at 58,316 miles. This suggests the vehicle passed without immediate safety concerns, but the history reveals recurring issues with brake discs and suspension components. The 2020 MOT noted nearside and offside front brake discs worn but not excessively, alongside nearside rear shock absorbers with light oil misting or reduced damping. By 2019, the same brake discs were pitted or scored but not seriously weakened. These patterns indicate gradual wear on braking systems, potentially linked to driving habits or component quality. The trend in defects appears stable rather than worsening. Brake disc conditions progressed from pitting (2019) to mild wear (2020) without escalating to critical failure, and the 2021 MOT showed no issues. The shock absorber defect in 2020 remains unresolved, as no follow-up was recorded. However, the absence of recent defects does not confirm repairs, so further inspection is needed. The vehicle’s mileage of 58,316 miles over 14 years equates to roughly 4,165 miles annually, significantly lower than average.
