2016 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · EA66 WPF

The vehicle presents a stable and improving maintenance profile, with the most recent MOT test on 13 November 2025 at 30,504 miles showing a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes throughout 2022, 2023, and 2024. The record indicates that previous mechanical issues have been successfully addressed, moving from a failed test in late 2021 to a period of flawless certification. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2016 vehicle, averaging approximately 3,050 miles per year. The data shows steady, incremental growth from 11,445 miles in November 2019 to the current 30,504 miles. While this low usage suggests minimal wear on drivetrain components and engine internals, the slow progression of mileage can sometimes lead to secondary issues such as tyre flat-spotting or battery degradation due to infrequent use. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension and wheel alignment. The 2021 failure at 17,722 miles flagged both nearside and offside front inner tyres worn on the edges, which often points to incorrect camber settings or worn suspension bushes. Although these issues were resolved, a physical inspection of the front axle components and tyre wear patterns is necessary to ensure the alignment remains within specification. The 2021 test also identified front brake pads measuring less than 1.5mm thick. While the subsequent clean passes suggest the braking system has been serviced, a manual check of the remaining pad thickness and the condition of the brake discs is advised. Given the low annual mileage, checking for any signs of corrosion on the braking surfaces or underside of the chassis is a prudent step to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from moisture-related oxidation during periods of inactivity.
