Our Verdict
Highly recommended for those seeking a practical Subaru commuter with exceptionally low mileage and a consistently clean MOT record. This vehicle represents a well-used example of the Impreza range.
When inspecting this specific vehicle, the primary focus should be verifying the low mileage. As it has covered roughly 4,200 miles per year—slightly above the aggregate average of 3,716 miles for this model—ensure the service history is consistent to confirm the engine has been properly maintained despite the low annual use. Check for any signs of underbody corrosion, as this is noted as a top failure reason for the Impreza across the UK.
Given the 1600cc engine, inspect the clutch operation and gearbox, as low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from component stagnation. Since the most recent MOT in November 2025 showed no defects, the vehicle appears to have been kept in a good mechanical state regarding safety and emissions standards.
The 1.6L petrol engine is designed for efficiency rather than performance, likely placing it in a relatively low insurance group. You should expect moderate fuel economy, though the permanent all-wheel drive system will naturally consume more fuel than front-wheel-drive competitors.
Maintenance costs are generally standard for a Japanese hatchback, though Subaru-specific parts can occasionally carry a premium. Estimated annual running costs typically fall between £1,100 and £1,400, accounting for fuel, basic tax, and routine servicing.
Pay attention to the areas around the 2023 MOT failure at 46,713 miles; although the specific defect was not listed in the summary provided, you should verify that the repair was permanent. Check the headlamp alignment and exhaust system integrity, as these are common failure points for this model in the aggregate data.
Inspect the undercarriage for rust, particularly on the sills and wheel arches, as corrosion is a documented issue for the Impreza. Also, check the tyres for even wear, as the Subaru's AWD drivetrain can highlight uneven wear if geometry is misaligned.
This 2014 Subaru Impreza WP64KCC sits at 57,678 miles, which is significantly lower than the national average for its age. The MOT history shows a strong trend of passes, with only one failure recorded in late 2023 which was immediately rectified to allow a pass. With a 1600cc engine, it offers a more economical-oriented choice compared to the high-performance turbo variants of this model.
The Subaru Impreza generally shows an 80.5% MOT pass rate, with common issues related to lighting and exhaust components.
