2022 Honda Unknown 0.1L Petrol · AE72 EUF

The vehicle presents a clean bill of health on paper. The sole MOT test on record, conducted on 16 January 2026 at just 328 miles, passed with zero defects or advisories. With no prior test history to compare against, there is no trend to analyse. The maintenance picture is effectively a blank slate, which is typical for a nearly new vehicle that has barely been used. The mileage profile is exceptionally low. A 2022-registered Honda with only 328 miles on the clock equates to roughly 82 miles per year over four years. That figure sits well below the UK average of around 7,000 to 8,000 miles annually. Such minimal use raises a different set of concerns than high mileage wear. Extended periods of sitting can cause flat-spotted tyres, seized brake calipers, dried-out rubber bushes, and moisture accumulation in the fuel system and exhaust. The single recorded mileage figure of 328 miles, logged at the January 2026 test, suggests the vehicle may have been stored or barely driven for most of its life before that point. A buyer should treat this as a low-mileage, high-age vehicle rather than a genuinely low-use modern car. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for date codes and cracking, as original-fit rubber degrades with age regardless of tread depth. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and confirm the calipers are not binding after prolonged standing. Examine suspension bushes and gaiters for perishing, and verify that the engine, gearbox, and coolant systems show no signs of condensation or internal corrosion from infrequent warm-ups. The exhaust system should be inspected for moisture-induced rust, particularly if the car has been making only short trips. The MOT record confirms nothing has failed, but it also reveals nothing about how the car has been stored or maintained between registration and its first test. A physical inspection by a qualified mechanic is strongly advised before purchase, focusing on age-related deterioration rather than wear from use.
