Subaru Justy build years & generations

Coverage 1984-20032 named generationsHatchbackPETROL

The Subaru Justy spans several build years and named generations (1984-2003). Match a build year to its generation, then see how each group of build years does at its MOT.

Build years & generations, side by side

Find the build years you're looking at and see which generation they are. You'll also see which group of build years the MOT figures come from.

  • Built 1984-1994

    Generation
    KA (1st gen)
    Figures from
    cars built before 2005

    Counted together with KA (1st gen) and Mk2 (OBD) cars built in the same years.

  • Built 1995-2003

    Generation
    Mk2 (OBD)
    Figures from
    cars built before 2005

    Counted together with KA (1st gen) and Mk2 (OBD) cars built in the same years.

“Figures from” is the group of build years behind each card's MOT figures. Years where one generation gave way to the next can sit in a wider group until there's enough history to split them.

How each group of build years performs

Each card shows MOT results for one group of Subaru Justy build years. “Age” means the car's age on the day of its MOT, not its build year. “25+” groups every test on cars aged 25 or older.
