MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Honda Civic (S663 NLX) between February 2006 and July 2020.

The record contains 14 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 30 July 2020 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (21 issues), Lighting (14 issues), Brakes (14 issues), Bodywork (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 63 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: “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural stren”; “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area so inadequately repaired that control of the vehicle is like”; “Nearside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”.
