2003 Honda Accord 2.0L Petrol · LB03 AFN

The 2003 Honda Accord demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-12-31 at 149,757 miles recording a pass and no defects. This aligns with the prior 2024-12-31 test at 144,587 miles, also passing without issues. While a 2024-01-04 test at 138,843 miles showed a failure, no defects were recorded, suggesting a technical or procedural issue rather than a mechanical fault. The absence of recurring critical failures or advisories indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements. Mileage progression shows consistent usage, with 133,298 miles recorded in 2022-11-30, rising to 138,843 by 2024-01-04, and reaching 149,757 by 2025-12-31. This equates to an average annual mileage of 6,511 miles, typical for its age. No significant gaps or spikes in mileage are evident, implying steady operation rather than prolonged inactivity or excessive wear. The clean MOT history from 2022 onward suggests no major mechanical or structural degradation requiring urgent attention. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, which can degrade over 23 years of use. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as these often manifest gradually. Corrosion on the chassis or underbody, especially in areas prone to road salt, warrants scrutiny. While the MOT records show no immediate concerns, the vehicle’s age and mileage necessitate verification of its long-term maintenance practices, including potential exhaust system integrity and fluid leak checks.
