Our Verdict
Exercise significant caution. The vehicl
The most critical step is to ensure the vehicle passes a fresh MOT test before any funds are exchanged. You should also request a full service history to determine if the gap in MOT records since 2022 was due to the vehicle being in long-term storage or if it has been driven without a valid test.
Negotiate the purchase price heavily to account for the likely cost of repairs needed to make the car roadworthy. Be wary of any claims regarding the car's condition that cannot be backed up by recent official documentation.
The 1.8L petrol engine is generally efficient for its size, though it will not match the economy of modern hybrids. As a 2010 model, it falls into an older tax bracket which may be more expensive than newer equivalents.
Insurance groups for the Civic are typically moderate, but maintenance costs for a 16-year-old vehicle can vary. Expect annual running costs to include fuel, road tax, insurance, and essential maintenance.
Prioritise an inspection of the tyres, exhaust system, and headlamps, as these are the top failure points for this model according to aggregate data. Check for any signs of corrosion on the exhaust and ensure tyre tread depths are legal.
Given the four-year gap in MOT history, inspect the brakes for seizure and check the condition of the rubber components and fluids, which can degrade when a vehicle is left stationary for extended periods.
This black 2010 Honda Civic 1.8L petrol has a recorded mileage of 89,732 miles as of its last MOT in 2022. While the history shows a clean pass in 2021, there is a critical gap in testing records for the last four years. This lack of recent data makes it difficult to assess the vehicle's current condition.
Across 329,048 analysed vehicles, this model has an average MOT pass rate of 78.1%.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2010 model year cars.
- Roof Channel CorrosionModerate
Rust often forms under the roof-channel trim strips.
- LCD Dashboard Display FailureModerate
The two-tier dashboard uses an LCD panel for speed and key information that can fade, develop dead pixels, or fail entirely with age, making critical information difficult to read.
- Immobiliser Battery DrainModerate
The immobiliser system can draw excessive current when parked, draining the battery over several days. Cars left unused for a week or more may fail to start.
