Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to the high mil
Prioritise reviewing the service history to confirm when the timing belt and water pump were last replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for this engine. Given the high mileage, check for signs of clutch wear and investigate the health of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), which can be a point of failure on older high-mileage diesels.
Negotiate the purchase price based on the fact that the mileage is significantly higher than the model average. Ensure that any previous advisories, such as the worn rear brake discs and anti-roll bar linkage play, have been addressed by the seller.
The 2.2L diesel engine is designed for efficiency over long distances, though fuel economy will vary based on driving style. Insurance and road tax will be consistent with a 2008 2.2L diesel, but maintenance costs are likely to increase as the vehicle exceeds 175,000 miles.
Expect higher-than-average spend on wear-and-tear items. Based on the MOT history and age, budget for periodic replacements of suspension components, brake discs, and exhaust sections to keep the vehicle roadworthy.
Carefully inspect the exhaust system for leaks and the tyres for uneven outer-edge wear, as these were specific issues noted in the 2022 MOT. Check the rear brake discs for pitting or scoring and the front anti-roll bar linkages for play, both of which appeared as advisories in 2023 and 2024.
Verify that all external lighting is functioning, specifically the rear position lamps which were flagged in 2022. A general check of the suspension and steering is advised given the recorded play in the linkage ball joint in previous years.
This 2008 blue Honda Civic 2.2L diesel has a record of five consecutive MOT passes since 2022. While it has accumulated significant mileage, the two most recent tests in 2025 and 2026 were completed without any recorded defects. Earlier records from 2022 to 2024 show advisories regarding the exhaust, tyres, and brakes, which is common for a vehicle of this age.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 78.1%, with the most frequent failures occurring in tyres, exhausts, and headlamps.
