2023 Honda Civic 1.5L Petrol · AE72 FGG

The most recent MOT was carried out on 15 May 2026, just a few weeks ago, and the car passed with no recorded defects at 31,174 mi. This tells you that, at the time of testing, the vehicle met the basic safety and emissions standards and there were no issues flagged by the examiner. Because the MOT history only contains this single, clean result, there is no recurring mechanical pattern to analyse. With only one data point the trend can be described as stable – the car has not shown any deterioration or improvement that can be measured from the MOT record alone. At roughly 31,000 mi for a three‑year‑old 2023 Civic, the mileage works out to about 10,400 mi per year, which sits squarely in the normal range for a vehicle of this age. This suggests the car has been used at an average rate – not heavily abused, but also not sitting idle for long periods. Consequently you can expect wear on consumables (tires, brakes, suspension bushings, and fluid‑service items) to be moderate and in line with typical expectations for a three‑year‑old model. Given the limited MOT data, the most important checks are visual and functional rather than relying on the MOT record. When you inspect the car, look closely at: tyre tread depth and uniform wear, and check for any side‑wall damage brake pads and discs for thickness and any uneven wear or scoring suspension components (mounts, bushings, shock absorbers) for leaks or looseness fluid levels and condition (engine oil, coolant, brake fluid) and confirm recent service intervals any signs of corrosion, leaks, or unusual noises while the engine is running and during a short test drive If these items are in good order and the car has a full service history, the vehicle appears to be in a sound state for its age and mileage.
