2016 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · LR16 AEA

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trend and remains roadworthy according to the most recent DVSA records. The latest test on 13 October 2025 at 116,960 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive passes without a single recorded failure or advisory note, indicating a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 12,774 miles between February 2022 and February 2023, and 12,424 miles between February 2023 and February 2024. A slight increase in usage occurred between February 2025 and October 2025, adding 10,845 miles in just over seven months. These figures suggest the car has been used regularly as a primary driver rather than sitting idle, which generally helps preserve rubber components and prevents battery degradation. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions over a five-year period is rare for a car of this age and mileage. The record shows no evidence of structural corrosion or recurring mechanical failures. While the MOT history is clean, a buyer should still verify the service history for oil changes and transmission fluid flushes, as these internal maintenance items are not captured during a standard MOT inspection. A physical inspection should focus on the current state of consumables. Given the mileage of 116,960, the buyer should check the remaining tyre tread and the condition of the brake pads. While the tester flagged no defects in October 2025, the recent increase in mileage suggests these wear items may require replacement sooner than the next scheduled test.
