2016 Subaru XV 2.0L Diesel · VE66 RVO

The most recent MOT was on 2025-08-27 at 53,990 miles — just under 10 months ago and very current for a 2016 vehicle. It passed with no defects recorded. All five MOTs since 2021 have been clean passes, with no advisories or failures logged. There is no evidence of recurring mechanical issues, deteriorating components, or escalating faults across the history. The condition trend is stable — not worsening, not improving in any measurable way beyond consistent compliance. The absence of defects over five consecutive tests suggests reliable maintenance and/or gentle usage. At 53,990 miles aged 10 years, the car averages just under 5,400 miles per year — well below the UK average of around 8,000–10,000. This low annual mileage could indicate light use, but it also raises cautious questions about potential under-use: infrequent driving can lead to degraded brake fluid, stale fuel, dried rubber seals, or seized parking brake cables. It does not confirm neglect, but neither does it guarantee freshness. The MOT history alone gives no indication of hard use — no suspension repairs, brake replacements, or exhaust issues appear in the record.
