Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle maintains a current roadworthy status, though the mechanical history shows a worsening trend regarding brake component wear. While the most recent test on November 26, 2025, passed, it introduced an advisory for brake discs being worn and pitted. This follows a similar advisory from November 18, 2024, which specifically flagged the offside front brake disc. The recurrence of these notes suggests that the discs are reaching the end of their operational life and require imminent replacement. At 12 years old, the recorded mileage of 57,678 miles represents an average of approximately 4,806 miles per year. This low-usage pattern often indicates the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and surface corrosion on metal parts. The record shows consistent annual testing, with a slight gap between December 2022 and November 2023, but overall the vehicle has followed a relatively regular inspection schedule despite the low annual mileage. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to assess the extent of the surface corrosion and pitting noted in the last two tests. The advisory for a deteriorated rear registration plate and an inoperative plate lamp in 2025 indicates that minor exterior trim and lighting maintenance has been neglected. Given the low mileage, the inspection should also check for cracks in the suspension bushings and perished rubber hoses, as these components often age through time rather than mileage on a vehicle driven infrequently. Buying score: 58 Risk level: Medium.

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.
