2010 Honda Civic 1.3L Petrol · NG10 OML

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the recent MOT history. The most recent test conducted in February 2025 at 118,900 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating the car currently meets minimum legal standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2022 and 2024, suggesting that the owner has maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids major recurring mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per annum. There is a notable increase in usage between October 2023 and February 2025, where the car covered nearly 20,000 miles in just sixteen months. This rapid accumulation puts higher-than-average demand on consumables such as tyres, brake components, and suspension bushings. The failure in October 2023 at 98,129 miles was resolved immediately, as the vehicle passed two days later, showing a proactive approach to maintaining faults. While the records are generally clean, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the structural integrity, which is a concern for a sixteen-old Honda. Given the age and the mileage trend, check for corrosion on the sills, rear wheel arches, and exhaust mounting points. The buyer should also inspect the rubber components in the suspension for cracking or tearing, as these often degrade over time regardless of mileage. The lack of recorded advisories in the last two tests suggests the vehicle is currently in relatively good condition, but a manual check of the brake pad thickness and fluid levels remains necessary to ensure no hidden issues are developing between test intervals.
