2012 Subaru WRX STI-TP UK SYM-CAL AWD 2.5L Petrol · T7 PJE

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with all five consecutive MOT tests from 2020 to 2024 recording no defects. The most recent September 2024 test at 33,238 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. No advisories or failures were noted across the entire history, suggesting the owner prioritized regular servicing and addressed minor wear promptly. The absence of recurring faults implies the car has been well-maintained within its low annual mileage range. The mileage progression shows minimal variation, with annual increases of 300–400 miles between tests. From 32,608 miles in August 2020 to 33,238 miles in September 2024, the vehicle has accumulated just 630 miles over four years, reinforcing the low-use profile. This pattern aligns with the 2,374-mile-per-year average, but the extended gaps between tests—particularly the 13-month interval between August 2020 and September 2021—raise questions about potential periods of inactivity. Such intervals could contribute to component degradation, including suspension bushes or brake disc corrosion, even if not flagged in MOT records. While the MOT history lacks structural or mechanical warnings, the buyer should verify the condition of high-mileage consumables like tyres and brake pads, which may have aged despite low usage. A physical inspection should focus on suspension components for wear, exhaust system integrity, and corrosion in wheel arches or underbody panels. The absence of advisories on steering or drivetrain elements is reassuring, but the car’s age and low mileage warrant scrutiny of fluid levels, battery health, and electrical systems, which can deteriorate during prolonged inactivity.
