2014 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · LS14 XFA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT on 27 March 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the owner has demonstrated a willingness to rectify identified faults immediately following test failures. While the most recent test initially flagged minor items such as a faulty nearside front position lamp and an ineffective wiper blade, these were rectified to achieve a clean pass with no recorded defects. This suggests a proactive approach to basic upkeep rather than a pattern of mechanical neglect. At 83,272 miles, the Honda Civic has averaged approximately 7,000 miles per year, which aligns perfectly with typical usage patterns for a twelve-year-old car. The record shows consistent intervals, with roughly 18,400 miles covered between April 2024 and April 2025, and another 8,600 miles between April 2025 and March 2026. This steady mileage profile reduces the likelihood of dry rot or degradation of rubber components often seen in long-term stationary vehicles. A buyer should inspect the tyres and alignment specifically, given the failure in April 2025 where the offside front tyre was worn bald on the inner edge and the nearside rear tyre suffered a structural tear. This uneven wear often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require verification to prevent premature tyre failure. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or brake issues, a physical check of the chassis and suspension arms is advisable to ensure the lower mileage has not masked age-related wear.
