2016 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · FD16 EZC

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on August 4, 2025 at 80,085 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This continued streak of clean passes over the last four years indicates that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and safety failures typically flagged during annual DVSA inspections. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. Between the August 2022 test at 50,455 miles and the August 2025 test at 80,085 miles, the car covered 29,630 miles, showing a steady pattern of regular use. The interim test in March 2022 at 45,653 miles suggests the owner was proactive about testing the vehicle despite low mileage, which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and brake components often associated with long periods of inactivity. Because the MOT history shows no recurring faults or structural weaknesses, a buyer should focus on standard wear and tear components that are not covered by the test. Given the age of the Honda, a physical inspection of the rubber suspension bushes and coil springs is advisable to ensure they are not cracking or perished. You should also check the condition of the brake discs for pitting and verify the depth of the tyres, as the MOT record only confirms the functional status of these items when they reach legal limits.
