2014 Subaru Outback 2.0L Diesel · VX64 YEB

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently non-roadworthy at 2026-06-18, as the MOT record contains multiple failures recorded in the past. The most recent test on 2025-10-29 failed at 149,710 miles, with critical issues including a corroded rear exhaust joint, an inoperative engine MIL, and a failing electronic parking brake warning. This indicates a significant lack of maintenance history and a clear deterioration of mechanical components since the previous inspection. The mileage trend is marked by rapid accumulation, suggesting that the owner has likely been relying on a lower mileage threshold or has been driving frequently without proper upkeep. Given the vehicle's age of approximately 12 years, this pattern of high mileage combined with recurring mechanical failures is concerning. The failure to maintain the engine MIL and parking brake warning suggests that basic upkeep was either skipped or the vehicle was driven under conditions where such warnings would not have been triggered. Consequently, a buyer must inspect the vehicle personally to verify the condition of critical components. The history reveals recurring faults in the suspension system, specifically worn suspension arms and bushings on both front and rear anti-roll bars, which can lead to excessive movement and reduced handling. Furthermore, the engine and exhaust systems show signs of corrosion and potential failure, and the braking system displays a malfunctioning electronic warning that must be addressed. The vehicle should be checked for structural integrity, particularly around the chassis and suspension mounts, and the exhaust system for corrosion, as these areas have been identified as problematic in the MOT record.
