2006 Honda Civic 2.2L Diesel · FH06 WJF

The 2006 Honda Civic presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2025-07-08 at 173,509 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this follows three consecutive clean passes in prior years. The vehicle shows no escalating faults or recurring advisories across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 173,509 against an age of nearly twenty years, equating to roughly 8,675 miles per annum which is typical for the model's lifespan. The tests from 2022-09-01 at 165,395 miles through to 2025-07-08 at 173,509 miles show steady annual use of around 2,500 to 3,400 miles, with no abrupt accumulation or long dormant gaps. The DVSA data is sparse but clean, showing only a failed entry on 2022-09-01 at 165,395 miles with no defects logged, immediately followed by a pass on the same day, implying an administrative or emission-retest anomaly rather than a mechanical defect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness given the mileage and age. The absence of advisories across four years suggests previous owners kept basic consumables in order, yet high-mileage Hondas of this era are prone to rear subframe corrosion and worn drop links not always caught in a pass-only record. Verify the bodywork and underbody for structural rust at the sills and suspension mounts. Confirm the 2022 same-day fail-pass was a paperwork correction, not a concealed brake or emissions fault, by reviewing the VT20 and VT30 documents before purchase.
