What should I look for in a used Subaru BRZ?
The BRZ is a rear-wheel drive sports car known for sliding its tail wide when driven with gusto. Check very carefully for previous accident damage because a clean, presentable car on the outside could be hiding all sorts of horrors underneath. At the very least, do a HPI check. This should let you know if the car has been written off by the insurance company at any point in its life.
If you want further security, then organisations such as the AA and RAC offer pre-purchase inspection services, where a trained inspector comes to view your potential purchase for a fee, and will point out any potential problems with it.
Is a used Subaru BRZ reliable?
Subaru usually puts in a good showing when it comes to reliability and the brand was placed 10th overall out of 30 car brands surveyed in the last What Car? Reliability Survey the firm appeared in. The BRZ wasn’t included, unfortunately, thanks to the limited number of results received, due in no small part to the tiny number of cars sold.
If you would like to see the full reliability list for coupés and convertibles, head to the What Car? Reliability Survey pages for more information.
