Our Verdict

A well-maintained example of the seventh-generation Civic that benefits from remarkably low mileage for its age. While it shows typical age-related wear, the lack of major mechanical failures makes it a sensible used car purchase.

When inspecting this Civic, your priority should be the service history. Given the low mileage, it is vital to ensure the timing belt has been changed according to interval rather than just mileage, as rubber degrades regardless of distance. Check for evidence of consistent oil changes, as the MOT history notes advisories for minor deterioration in brake pipes and suspension over the years.

Look for signs of the common Honda rust issues of this era, particularly around the rear arches and sills, although the MOT history hasn't flagged structural corrosion yet. Ask the seller about any recent work done on the suspension, ensure the tyres are not perished from age, as the 2021 test already noted perishing/cracking on the front tyres.
