HONDA FR-V2008 · 1.8L Petrol

This vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 9 April 2026 at 88,021 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a failure on 26 March 2026, though the record provides no specific defect data for that failure, suggesting the rectification was swift and straightforward. The mileage is exceptionally low for an eighteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,890 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between February 2024 and March 2025, where the odometer rose from 71,774 to 80,229 miles. More recently, the car covered nearly 8,000 miles between March 2026 and April 2026, which is a highly unusual spike in mileage over a single month. The MOT history is remarkably clean, with no recorded advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion across the last three years. While the lack of flagged defects suggests a well-preserved car, the low overall mileage and the recent sudden surge in use warrant a physical check. A buyer should specifically inspect the tyres for flat spots or perishing caused by long periods of standing. Check for any signs of seizing in the brake calipers and inspect the rubber seals and hoses for dry rot. Given the age of the vehicle, a manual check for structural rust on the chassis and sills is necessary, as the MOT record does not highlight any previous corrosion issues.
