2023 Subaru Outback Touring SYM AWD CVT 2.5L Petrol · SN23 YDP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While the Subaru passed its MOT on 24 February 2026 at 44,432 miles, it initially failed that same day due to rear brake pads being measured at just 1.1mm. The immediate rectification of this fault suggests the owner addresses critical safety items only once they reach a legal failure threshold rather than during scheduled service intervals. At 44,432 miles over just three years, this Outback has covered approximately 14,800 miles per annum. This figure exceeds the UK annual average for a passenger car, suggesting consistent heavy use which accelerates the wear on drivetrain and suspension components. The record is relatively sparse due to the vehicle's young age, but the high mileage relative to its age confirms that consumables like tyres and brake components are likely nearing the end of their primary life cycles. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to ensure the rotors did not suffer uneven wear or scoring during the pad replacement. Given the high annual mileage, close attention must be paid to the front suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of premature fatigue common in high-mileage AWD vehicles. The CVT transmission should also be verified for fluid service history, as the mileage profile places significant demand on the gearbox compared to lower-mileage examples.
