MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Subaru Impreza (LM53 WCT) between June 2007 and June 2017.

The record contains 12 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 01 June 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (22 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Brakes (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
