HONDA CIVIC2008 · 1.3L Petrol

This 2008 Honda Civic presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 24 September 2025 at 164,488 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back several years, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a state of compliance with UK road standards. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's eighteen year age. A notable increase in usage occurred between 17 January 2022 and 6 February 2023, where the odometer rose from 113,189 to 138,640 miles. More recently, the gap between 6 February 2023 and 12 February 2024 shows a further 15,465 miles covered. The current reading of 164,488 miles averages roughly 9,138 miles per year, suggesting regular use rather than prolonged periods of standing. The absence of recorded defects or advisories across the last five tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still manually inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, as these components typically degrade regardless of MOT outcomes. Check the brake discs for lip wear and the tyres for uneven tread patterns, as the MOT only flags these when they reach the legal limit. Given the age of the chassis, a physical inspection for corrosion on the underbody and sills is recommended. The record shows no structural failures, but the lack of any advisories over several years may suggest a lenient testing regime or an exceptionally well-maintained example. Verify the service history to ensure engine oil and transmission fluids have been changed in line with the mileage increases.
