Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2009 Honda Civic presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 9 August 2025 at 96,495 miles with zero defects recorded. Prior to this, the vehicle passed its 2024, 2023, and August 2022 tests cleanly, demonstrating consistent mechanical compliance. A failed test occurred on 16 August 2022 at 70,737 miles, though the record curiously lists no defects for this failure; the vehicle passed the retest just three days later on 19 August 2022 at the identical mileage, indicating the issue was swiftly rectified. The annual mileage accumulation tells a specific story of low-to-moderate use. Between August 2022 and August 2023, the car covered 9,356 miles, followed by 8,309 miles the subsequent year, and 8,093 miles in the year leading up to August 2025. This equates to a steady average of roughly 8,500 miles annually, which is slightly higher than the overall lifetime average of 5,676 miles per year, suggesting the recent owner used the vehicle more actively. However, a significant anomaly exists at the top of the record. The recorded mileage has remained entirely static at 96,495 miles since the August 2025 test, meaning the vehicle has covered zero miles in the eleven months leading up to today's date of 8 July 2026. Given the complete absence of mechanical advisories or defects across the last four years, the powertrain, braking system, and suspension components appear to have been maintained to a high standard. The prolonged stationary period since August 2025 warrants a physical inspection of consumables and rubber components. A buyer should inspect the tyres for flat-spotting or perished sidewalls, check the brake discs for surface corrosion from standing, and assess the condition of suspension bushes and exhaust seals. Verify the operation of the locking mechanism and battery health, as long periods of inactivity often drain batteries and cause sticking calipers or binding handbrake cables.
