HONDA CIVIC2007 · 2.2L Diesel

This 2007 Honda Civic is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 6 February 2026 at 176,954 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has consistently passed its tests over the last three years. While the record shows failures on 2 February 2026 and 3 March 2023, the absence of listed defects for these failures suggests they may have been administrative or minor issues rectified immediately. The mileage is typical for a nineteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,313 miles per year. There is a steady increase in usage, with 11,154 miles added between the April 2023 test and the September 2024 test, followed by a slower accumulation of 11,154 miles over the subsequent seventeen months leading to the February 2026 pass. This consistent usage pattern suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber seals. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age and mileage, with no recorded advisories regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc wear. A lack of flagged corrosion is positive, but a buyer should still physically inspect the chassis and sills for structural rust, as these are common failure points for this model that may not have been highlighted in these specific reports. Given the high mileage of 176,954, a manual inspection should focus on the drivetrain and consumables. Check for clutch slip and engine mount wear, as these components typically degrade regardless of a clean MOT record. Verify the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items that fall outside the scope of a standard MOT test.
