2023 Subaru Forester I XE PRM Ebxr AWD CVT 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · LR23 XFL

The vehicle holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 20 February 2026. While the record shows an initial failure on the same date and mileage, the subsequent pass with no recorded defects indicates that any issues were immediately rectified or represented an administrative anomaly. The maintenance trend appears stable as the vehicle currently met all safety and emissions standards without recurring mechanical or structural failures noted in history. At 9,442 miles over three years, this Subaru Forester has clocked significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 3,147 miles per year. This usage pattern suggests short-distance commuting or infrequent use, which could imply the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the CVT drivetrain and suspension components, it can occasionally lead to flat-spotted tyres or corrosion on brake discs if the car is not driven regularly. A buyer should verify the specific reason for the initial February 2026 failure to ensure a critical component was not merely patched or ignored. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should focus on checking for surface rust on the braking assembly and the condition of rubber-based suspension bushes and seals. Inspect the tyres for age-related cracking, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from perished rubber before the tread reaches the legal limit.
