Our Verdict
Proceed with caution but generally a sol
When viewing this vehicle, pay close attention to the subframe. The 2025 MOT recorded corrosion on both nearside and offside rear subframe mountings; although noted as not excessive at the time, you should check if any remedial work has been carried out since. Additionally, verify that the braking system has been serviced recently, as the 2025 test flagged thin pads on both front and rear axles.
Ask the seller for evidence of recent tyre replacements, as the 2023 and 2025 tests highlighted issues with tyre wear, cracking, and perishing. Given the 2022 failure involving the windscreen washer and wipers, ensure all visibility components and the tyre pressure monitoring system are functioning correctly during your test drive.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Civic is likely to offer efficient fuel economy suitable for longer motorway journeys. Tax and insurance groups for this model vary depending on the specific trim level, but the 1597cc engine generally sits in a moderate bracket.
Maintenance costs should be budgeted for regular consumables like tyres and brake pads, which have appeared in the MOT history. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,400-£1,700.
First, inspect the underside of the vehicle. The 2025 MOT specifically identified corrosion on the rear subframe mounting areas. While it was not a failure then, you should check for any progression of this corrosion.
Second, check the condition of the tyres and brakes. The vehicle has a history of MOT advisories for thin brake pads and tyres worn to the legal limit or perishing. Finally, test the windscreen wiper system and the washer fluid spray, as these were specific points of failure in the 2022 MOT record.
This 2017 silver Honda Civic 1.6 diesel has covered 65,458 miles since its registration in November 2017. The MOT history shows a mix of results, including a clean pass in June 2026, but also significant advisories in 2025 regarding brake wear and subframe corrosion. The mileage is higher than the model average but remains within a reasonable range for a diesel vehicle of this age.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 78.2% average MOT pass rate, with common failure points being brake pads, tyres, and headlamps.
