2009 Honda Civic 2.2L Diesel · MV09 KBK

The vehicle holds a roadworthy certificate as of the 8 August 2025 test, where the tester passed it at 156,518 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available records reads as stable, showing no mechanical advisories or component failures since the 13 September 2023 examination. A failed entry logged on the same date with no defects noted points to an administrative irregularity rather than a worsening condition. At roughly 17 years old, the Civic displays a recorded average of 9,207 miles per year, which aligns with typical use for its age. The mileage progression is erratic rather than clean. The tester recorded 147,015 miles on 13 September 2023, then 156,943 miles at a failed test on 16 August 2024, only to show 151,075 miles at a pass six days later, before reaching 156,518 miles by August 2025. Such non-monotonic figures imply previous keepers either tolerated odometer faults or omitted accurate record-keeping, not a sustained high-use pattern. With no advisories or faults flagged in any test, the official record gives little indication of pressing mechanical risk. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of high-mileage wear items. The tester would scrutinise front suspension bushes, rear coil springs, brake disc thickness and caliper binding, plus underbody corrosion around sills and subframes. Given the anomalous mileage entries, verify the odometer against service history before purchase. The absence of recorded defects does not exempt the 156,518-mile Civic from consumable fatigue; expect tyre tread, wiper blades and exhaust emissions to need verification on the ramp.
