2021 Honda Civic EX Vtec CVT 1.0L Petrol · AF71 YDV

The 2021 Honda Civic EX VTEC CVT presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 September 2025 at 29,494 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior test on 10 September 2024 at 21,906 miles also passed clean. Two consecutive annual tests with zero advisories or failures indicate the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies DVSA roadworthiness criteria. The recorded mileage shows light use for a five-year-old car. Between September 2024 and September 2025 the odometer advanced only 7,588 miles, averaging roughly 5,899 miles per year across its life. Such low accumulation suggests gentle private use rather than high-frequency commuting, though extended standing periods cannot be ruled out from the record alone. The sparse history of just two tests leaves limited data, but both entries are clean with no consumable or structural flags. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished record. Low-mileage cars left idle can develop perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, or corroded brake discs through lack of movement. The CVT transmission and exhaust emissions system warrant a cold-start check for smooth engagement and absence of unusual odour. No recurring faults appear in the supplied MOT data, so no specific mechanical trend demands correction. The clean advisories imply previous owners addressed wear before each test. Verify service history matches the low mileage and confirm underbody structural integrity, as the MOT record does not capture latent corrosion hidden from routine testing.
