2011 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · LB11 UPD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 2 March 2026 at 74,581 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows an unusual pattern of immediate failures followed by passes on the same day. Both the March 2025 and 2026 tests failed without specific recorded defects, suggesting the previous owner addressed minor administrative issues or quickly rectified faults before a retest rather than suffering from recurring mechanical failures. At 15 years old, the recorded mileage of 74,581 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns with 1,902 miles driven between February 2024 and March 2025, and another 2,070 miles covered between March 2025 and March 2026. This low-frequency usage often reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it increases the risk of age-related rubber degradation and seized brake calipers due to periods of relative inactivity. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on structural integrity, as low-mileage Honda Civics are prone to corrosion in the rear sills and wheel arches. Despite the clean MOT advisories, the age of the vehicle suggests that suspension bushes and tyres may have perished or cracked regardless of the low mileage. Check the brake discs for surface pitting and test the fluid condition to ensure the low usage has not led to internal oxidation of the braking components.
