2014 Honda Civic 1.3L Petrol · PF63 ABN

The vehicle’s most recent MOT activity on 13 February 2024 at 101 976 mi shows a failed test due to a non‑functional nearside front position lamp and a rear registration‑plate lamp that was inoperative when multiple lamps were present. Although a pass entry was recorded on the same day for a minor advisory, the overall roadworthiness is compromised. The pattern of defects from 2017 onward indicates a worsening trend: early brake‑pad wear and headlamp aim issues have persisted into later lamp failures, brake‑fluctuation warnings and tyre‑pressure‑monitoring system faults, suggesting that corrective actions have not fully addressed underlying wear. Mileage accumulation has been steady at roughly 8 500 mi per year, which is typical for an eight‑year‑old Civic. MOT tests have been conducted annually from February 2017 through February 2024, providing a consistent inspection schedule. However, the gap of more than two years since the last recorded test means the vehicle’s current condition is uncertain and a fresh inspection is advisable before purchase. A prospective buyer should closely examine the braking system for pad thickness and any sign of excessive fluctuation, as multiple entries highlight front‑service brake issues and pads less than 1.5 mm thick. The lighting circuit requires verification of the front position lamp and rear registration‑plate lamp operation, and the tyre‑pressure‑monitoring system should be tested for proper fault detection. Tyre condition is a priority: check tread depth on all wheels, look for embedded objects such as the recorded nail in the offside rear tyre, and assess wear on the nearside front and rear tyres. Visual inspection of the nearside rear door for damage and the wiper blades for effective clearing is also warranted. Finally, a thorough walk‑around should reveal any corrosion or structural anomalies, especially around the door opening and underbody, to ensure long‑term integrity.
