2016 Honda Civic I-Dtec SE Plus 1.6L Heavy oil · FL16 VLR

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test on 30 January 2026 at 101,802 miles passed with no defects recorded, maintaining a stable trend across the last five inspection cycles. This consistency suggests the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a professional standard, addressing potential mechanical or structural issues before they could result in a test failure. The mileage pattern is typical for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between the February 2020 test at 56,234 miles and the January 2026 test at 101,802 miles, the car covered 45,568 miles, indicating steady and regular usage. The recent interval of 10,718 miles between the February 2025 and January 2026 tests shows a consistent driving habit, which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and components typically associated with long periods of standing. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes, brake components, or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear consumable items that the tester does not always flag. A buyer should verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as well as the tyre depth and uneven wear. Given the 100,000-mile milestone, it is essential to confirm the service history regarding the timing belt and clutch replacement, as these mechanical components often reach critical service intervals at this mileage regardless of a clean MOT record.
