2006 Honda Civic 1.3L Petrol · KR56 ADU

This 2006 Honda Civic is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 7 July 2025 at 119,658 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has consistently passed its tests over the last three years. A failure on 27 June 2025 was resolved within ten days, and a similar same-day failure and pass occurred on 10 June 2023. The vehicle has covered approximately 5,983 miles per year, which is low for a twenty year old car. Mileage accumulation has remained consistent and low in recent years, increasing by only 1,253 miles between 10 June 2023 and 6 June 2024, and by a further 983 miles by the July 2025 test. Such low usage suggests the car has not been subjected to heavy motorway wear, though it may have spent periods standing. The MOT record is unusually clean, with no defects or advisories noted across multiple tests. While this suggests a well-maintained vehicle, the total absence of flagged wear on consumables like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes is rare for a car of this age. A buyer should physically inspect the underbody for corrosion, as structural rust often develops on older Japanese imports regardless of mileage. Check for perished rubber components and signs of brake caliper seizing, which can occur when a vehicle is driven infrequently. Verify the condition of the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking, even if the tread depth remains legal. Given the lack of recorded faults, a manual check of the fluid levels and service history will confirm if the mechanical upkeep matches the clean MOT data.
