2013 Honda Civic 2.2L Diesel · MX13 YXH

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of intermittent mechanical issues. The most recent MOT on 1 December 2025 at 91,192 miles shows a clean pass with no defects recorded, suggesting that previous maintenance interventions have been effective. This follows a clean pass in December 2024 at 87,610 miles, indicating that the vehicle has entered a period of consistent upkeep and reliable operation. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 21,609 miles in March 2016 to the current 91,192 miles. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest long periods of inactivity or neglect. The gradual increase in mileage supports the conclusion that the car has been used for regular, light-to-moderate commuting rather than being subject to heavy commercial use or prolonged stationary periods. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system and the tyre pressure monitoring system, as these components have appeared in several historical failures. The June 2023 failure at 84,504 miles was significant, involving worn brake discs across all four corners, imbalanced front brakes, and low efficiency in both service and parking brakes. While the subsequent two tests passed without issue, a physical inspection of the brake pads, discs, and calipers is necessary to ensure the recent repairs have addressed the underlying wear patterns. The history also shows recurring faults with the tyre pressure monitoring system, specifically in May 2017, May 2018, and June 2022. Although the vehicle passed its most recent tests, the sensor or control unit should be checked for continued functionality. Additionally, while the record shows various tyre-related advisories and failures over the years, the recent clean results suggest the current rubber and wheel assemblies are in acceptable condition. Focus on checking the underside for any signs of corrosion or loose under-trays, as these were noted as being fitted during earlier inspections.
