2009 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · BK09 FFP

The 2009 Honda Civic presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 July 2025 at 95,646 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results from August 2021 through to July 2025. Annual mileage remains low for a 17-year-old vehicle. The records show 81,206 miles in August 2021, rising to 84,415 by August 2022, 86,866 by August 2023, 88,729 by August 2024, and 95,646 by July 2025. That equates to roughly 5,600 miles per year, with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The DVSA data is sparse on advisories, showing no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion across the entire period. A clean history with zero advisories implies the previous keeper kept basic consumables and structural items within tolerance, though MOT passes alone do not confirm proactive renewal of ageing parts. At this age and mileage, a buyer should still inspect the underside for structural rust, check coil springs and suspension arm bushes for perished rubber, and verify brake disc thickness and caliper operation in person. Low use over long intervals can allow moisture-related corrosion or stale fluid in the braking system despite a spotless test record. A pre-purchase inspection of the exhaust emissions, subframe, and sills remains sensible given the vehicle's 2009 build date.
