Our Verdict
This is a highly recommended example for a classic Honda enthusiast. The vehicle presents a remarkably consistent MOT record with no recorded defects over the last five years of testing.
When viewing this specific 1995 model, focus on verifying the consistency of the low mileage against the physical condition of the interior and engine bay. While the MOT history is clean, these records do not confirm the presence of a service history, so you should request physical evidence of oil changes and mechanical maintenance.
Given the age of the vehicle, negotiate based on the documented lack of defects, but remain vigilant about items not covered by MOT testing, such as timing belt intervals or fluid degradation. Check for any signs of rust on the underside, as this is a common concern for older Japanese saloons/hatchbacks that may not be immediately apparent during a standard MOT test.
As a 1.5L petrol vehicle from the mid-90s, running costs are expected to be moderate. Fuel economy will be lower than modern equivalents, and you should budget for higher emissions-based road tax if applicable, though many vehicles of this era fall into lower bands.
Maintenance costs for a Honda of this vintage are typically manageable due to the availability of parts, but you should account for the increasing cost of maintaining a classic vehicle. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, are roughly £1,100-£1,400 depending on annual mileage.
While this vehicle has had no MOT failures, the aggregate data for this model shows that brake pads, tyres, and headlamps are the most common failure points. Even though this specific car passed without defects in 2025, you should personally inspect the remaining tread on the tyres and the thickness of the brake pads.
Additionally, check the clarity of the headlamp lenses, as clouding can lead to failure on older vehicles. Because the MOT history shows no defects since 2021, it is worth checking the condition of rubber components like hoses and belts, which can perish with age regardless of mileage.
This 1995 Honda Civic, finished in blue with a 1.5L petrol engine, shows a very consistent usage pattern. With 97,628 miles recorded in August 2025, it has covered approximately 1,600 miles per year since 2021, which is significantly lower than the model average of 6,579 miles. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes from 2021 to 2025 with zero defects recorded.
The Honda Civic has a strong historical reputation, with an aggregate MOT pass rate of 78.2% across 328,155 analysed vehicles.
