Our Verdict
This 2021 Honda Civic Sport VTEC shows mixed reliability signals. While its low mileage and recent MOT pass are positives, a recent failure and recurring tyre/brake issues warrant caution.
Prioritise a full mechanical inspection to confirm repairs were completed after the 2025 MOT failure. Verify service records for brake and tyre maintenance. Negotiate based on the recent failure, as recurring issues may indicate ongoing neglect. Check for oil leaks from the shock absorbers and ensure all tyres are in good condition. Be wary of potential hidden costs from brake system repairs.
