2013 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · CU63 TPO

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test on 27 August 2025 at 74,650 miles yielded a pass despite an advisory for a nearside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit and unevenly. This indicates that while the vehicle is meeting safety standards, basic consumables are now beginning to require attention to prevent future failures in subsequent tests. The mileage profile is notably low for a thirteen-year-old Honda, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between August 2021 and August 2022, where the car covered only 764 miles in a full year. Since 2022, usage has become more consistent, covering 15,329 miles over the following three years. This low annual mileage generally suggests less wear on the drivetrain but can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and age-related corrosion if the vehicle has sat stationary for long periods between uses. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the braking system specifically, as the record flagged thin front brake pads in August 2023 at 65,328 miles. Given the uneven wear on the nearside rear tyre noted in 2025, a physical check of the suspension geometry and alignment is necessary to rule out seized calipers or worn bushes. The age of the vehicle necessitates a thorough inspection of the chassis for structural rust, particularly around the sills and mounting points, as these are common areas of failure on low-mileage cars regardless of the distance driven.
