2013 Honda Civic 1.6L Diesel · AF63 USW

The 2013 Honda Civic presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 November 2025 at 135,231 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed entry with no defects listed, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in November 2024, 2023, and 2022 all passed cleanly at 128,258, 123,300, and 113,836 miles respectively, confirming no recurring advisories or worsening condition across the recorded period. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical rate for a thirteen-year-old vehicle. The odometer moved from 113,836 miles in November 2022 to 135,231 by November 2025, an average of roughly 7,132 miles per year over that span, below the lifetime average of 10,402. The clean record across all five entries suggests the previous keeper kept basic consumable and structural upkeep current, with no flagged tyre tread, brake disc, or suspension bush issues. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection despite the unbroken pass history. The DVSA dataset shows no corrosion, exhaust emission, or binding caliper flags, but MOT tests do not strip components or measure suspension wear tolerances. At 135,231 miles the original coil springs, steering joints, and drivetrain mounts warrant physical checks for fatigue not captured by a visual test. Given the sparse but clean record, the Civic reflects responsible ownership rather than deferred maintenance. The November 2025 duplicate entries imply clerical error at the testing station, not concealed defects. Verify the V5C and service book to confirm the mileage trace and the failed-then-passed sequence before purchase.
