2008 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · OY08 TXD

The 2008 Honda Civic presents as roadworthy following a pass on 11 April 2026 at 149,545 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with the most recent history showing clean tests and no outstanding advisories. A two-day fail-and-pass sequence in April 2026 at near-identical mileages suggests an administrative or minor rectification event rather than a serious mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 149,545 against an 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 8,300 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The gap between the December 2023 test at 120,606 miles and the April 2025 test at 124,181 miles shows only 3,575 miles covered in sixteen months, indicating a period of low use. From April 2025 to April 2026 the car gained 25,364 miles, a sharper annualised increase that points to heavier recent commuting. The April 2026 fail at 149,540 miles carried no listed defects, so the buyer should confirm with the seller what triggered the rejection and what was corrected before the pass two days later. With no advisories across the recorded history, the tester logged no worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components at the time of each test. Given the age and mileage, a physical inspection should still check for front coil spring fatigue, rear brake disc wear, and underbody corrosion not captured by a clean MOT. The lack of flagged faults implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the sparse record offers limited insight into consumable replacement cycles.
