2013 Subaru BRZ 2.0L Petrol · WA13 OCB

The most recent MOT, dated September 2025, found several issues that require attention. Specifically, the registration plate lamp was found inoperative on the near side, and both the near side and offside rear tyres were worn close to the legal limit or on the edge. The history shows a recurring pattern of lighting faults, with the near side registration plate lamp being reported in two separate inspections. There is also an observation regarding the offside front service brake binding in an earlier inspection. The trend in the MOT history is not clearly worsening or improving; it shows specific faults being noted at different times, but the overall history is not entirely clean. The mileage of 112,055 miles on a 2013 model suggests an average of approximately 8,620 miles per year, which is typical for this age of vehicle. This mileage level indicates normal wear for a car of this vintage, but it does mean components such as suspension, brakes, and drivetrain have likely seen regular use. A buyer should immediately inspect the condition of the near side and offside rear tyres as they were noted as being worn close to the legal limit. Secondly, check the operation of all lighting systems, particularly the registration plate lamps, as this fault has appeared repeatedly. Finally, given the history of brake binding noted previously, a thorough check of the braking system components is essential.
