2017 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · OW66 OPR

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on 18 November 2025 at 72,934 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all legal safety requirements. Following an initial failure in late 2022, the vehicle has passed three consecutive annual tests without a single advisory or recurring mechanical fault. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per annum. Data shows a steady accumulation of use, with 8,623 miles recorded between December 2023 and November 2024, and another 6,634 miles between November 2024 and November 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been neglected through stagnation, which often helps keep seals and suspension components supple compared to cars that sit for long periods. While the MOT record is clean of mechanical advisories since 2022, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of consumable items that fall outside the standard testing scope. Given the age of the vehicle, check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber, as these are not always flagged until they reach significant failure. Examine the brake discs for uneven wear or deep corrosion, as the MOT only checks for operational efficiency and thickness rather than the overall quality of the hardware.
