MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Honda Civic (OW05 LGU) between February 2008 and February 2019.

The record contains 12 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 22 February 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (21 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Tyres (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 21 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside rear brake binding (3.7.B.1)”; “Nearside Rear Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (3.6.B.2c)”.
