2010 Honda Civic 2.2L Diesel · RE60 AYG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the September 2025 test at 106,449 miles. While a failure was recorded just eleven days prior at 106,183 miles, the lack of recorded defects on that failure suggests either an administrative error or a non-mechanical test failure that was immediately rectified. Since the October 2022 test, the car has maintained consecutive passes without any advisories, indicating a consistent level of mechanical upkeep and care. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage commuter vehicle, averaging approximately 6,650 miles per year. There is a notable period of low usage between October 2022 and September 2023, where the vehicle covered only 1,195 miles in eleven months. However, usage increased significantly in the following two years, with 12,745 miles logged between September 2023 and September 2025. This shift suggests the car is currently being used more regularly than previously, though the total mileage remains well below the average for a sixteen-year-old Honda. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the undercarriage and suspension components, as the MOT history does not flag any structural corrosion or mechanical wear. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for perished rubber in arm bushes and shock absorbers is advisable despite the clean test history. Although the 2022 advisory for 3mm rear tyre tread is long past, the current tread depth should be verified to ensure they have been replaced recently. The lack of recurring brake-related failures or exhaust emission issues suggests the previous owners maintained the primary safety systems effectively.
