2017 Honda GL 1.8L Petrol · AC17 AAC

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance record. The most recent test conducted on June 7, 2025 at 12,577 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the clean results of the previous four inspections. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been well maintained and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation during its tenure. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,400 miles per year. Between May 2023 and May 2024, the car covered only 183 miles, indicating long periods of stationary or very infrequent use. Such low mileage generally translates to minimal wear on high-stress components like the engine, drivetrain, and suspension. However, the irregular intervals between tests, such as the four-month gap between the 2024 and 2025, suggest the car may sit idle for months at a time. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should focus on specific risks associated with low-mileage storage. Physical inspection must check for corrosion on the brake discs and seized calipers, which often occur when a vehicle is not driven frequently enough to clear surface rust. The buyer should also inspect rubber components for cracking in suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, as these materials age through time regardless of mileage recorded. Checking the condition of fluids and engine belts is equally vital, as lubricants can degrade over long periods of inactivity.
