2016 Honda Civic 1.3L Petrol · MH16 AAV

The 2016 Honda Civic demonstrates a fully roadworthy status based on the latest DVSA test conducted on 12 June 2025 at 36,689 miles, which returned a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. That examination sits just over thirteen months before the current date of 20 July 2026, so the evidence remains fresh. The maintenance trend is stable, with each of the five annual examinations showing a clean result and no recurring mechanical concerns. In the June 2025 test the vehicle matched the fault-free outcome of the prior year, confirming consistent upkeep. Mileage progression reflects exceptionally light use for a decade-old car. The odometer read 27,976 miles at the 29 March 2021 test, rose to 30,758 by 23 March 2022, then 32,825 on 15 June 2023, 34,488 on 12 June 2024, and 36,689 on 12 June 2025. These figures average around 3,669 miles per year, with the only slight anomaly being a 14-month gap between the 2022 and 2023 inspections; otherwise the record shows disciplined, low-intensity motoring. Such a sparse but unbroken history implies an owner who maintained statutory compliance without accruing high wear on drivetrain or suspension components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on latent defects typical of low-mileage, occasionally stationary vehicles. The MOT entries never flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust issues, yet prolonged standing can conceal perished rubber mounts, surface rust on structural members, and binding calipers not evident during a brief test. Examine tyre sidewalls for cracking and confirm brake disc condition under load. Verify the absence of advisory-level wear on coil springs and subframe integrity, as the clean record offers no guarantee against age-related degradation invisible to the tester.
