2021 Subaru XV I SE Prem E Boxer AWD CVT 2.0L Hybrid electric · SJ21 AVM

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 25 September 2025 at 25,711 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the mechanical and structural components have met all DVSA safety standards without any signs of developing faults or neglect in the previous testing cycles. The mileage profile is low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,142 miles per year. Between the October 2024 test at 20,072 miles and the September 2025 test at 25,711 miles, the car covered 5,639 miles. This consistent usage suggests short-distance driving, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and brake system, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. Since the MOT record shows no recurring faults or historical advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to low-mileage use. A buyer should check for cracking in tyre sidewalls and wiper blades, which often occur due to age rather than tread depth. Given the Subaru AWD system, verifying the condition of the CVT fluid and checking for any fluid leaks around the transfer case is prudent to ensure the low mileage has not masked overlooked service intervals.
