AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2021 Honda Civic SR VTEC presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 March 2026 at 34,659 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the two prior annual tests also passed cleanly. Three consecutive MOT passes without advisories indicate the previous keeper maintained the car to a standard that satisfied DVSA examiners on every occasion. The mileage pattern sits within typical bounds for a five-year-old vehicle. The record shows 24,188 miles at the April 2024 test, rising to 29,610 miles by April 2025 and 34,659 miles by March 2026. That equates to roughly 5,400 to 5,500 miles added each year, a low-to-moderate accumulation that points to light domestic use rather than motorway-heavy commuting. No gaps appear in the testing sequence and no sudden mileage jumps suggest deferred or clocked readings. With no advisories or failures across the history, the MOT data raises no red flags on suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A clean record of this kind usually reflects careful ownership, though it does not confirm component condition beyond the test dates. The buyer should still verify in person that tyres, wiper blades, and fluid levels match the implied care, and confirm the bodywork and underbody show no undocumented rust. Given the sparse but unblemished history, a pre-purchase inspection remains sensible to validate the absence of latent faults the MOT would not capture. The low annual mileage means consumables have seen light duty, yet prolonged standing between short trips can age rubber and flat-spot tyres. A brief mechanical check will confirm the Civic is as sound as its certificate implies.
