2013 Honda Civic 2.2L Diesel · MW13 MXR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its recent testing history. The most recent inspection conducted on 27 June 2025 at 136,681 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just six days prior at 136,522 miles. This specific sequence suggests a minor issue or a component failure was identified and immediately rectified before the re-test, indicating a proactive approach to maintaining the vehicle to legal roadworthiness standards. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per year. Between June 2023 and June 2024, the car covered 15,588 miles, which represents a higher period of usage, while the subsequent interval of 11,030 miles between June 2024 and June 2025 returned to the annual norm. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly, which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and the corrosion of brake components associated with long periods of inactivity. While the record is clean of recurring mechanical advisories, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and braking system. Given the mileage exceeds 130,000 miles, checking for perished rubber arm bushes and worn coil springs is essential as these parts reach the end of their lifecycle. The failure in June 2025 without a recorded defect in the summary log often indicates a minor item like a light bulb or a fluid leak, but verifying the condition of the brake discs and the absence of binding calipers will ensure no underlying wear remains present that the MOT test did not capture.
