2017 Honda Civic 1.0L Petrol · AV17 OPP

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 17 July 2025 at 41,346 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This ongoing trend of perfect scores over the last five years indicates a stable maintenance regime where the vehicle has successfully avoided the common mechanical failures or structural degradation typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old Honda averaging approximately 4,600 miles per annum. Between the July 2021 test at 22,487 miles and the July 2025 test at 41,346 miles, the car covered 18,859 miles. This consistent low usage suggests light use, which generally limits the wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension components. However, low-frequency use can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or seals if the vehicle sits for extended periods. While the record shows no recorded faults or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage storage. A buyer should check the tyre sidewalls for cracking or flat spotting, as well as the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting due to infrequent use. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the fluid hoses is prudent to ensure they have not become brittle despite the low mechanical wear. The clean history suggests a well-maintained example that requires no immediate mechanical attention.
