2011 Honda Insight 1.3L Hybrid electric (clean) · RO61 FJE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent MOT test in December 2024 passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car is meeting safety and emissions standards. While there was a failure recorded in early 2021, the vehicle has maintained a clean sheet through all subsequent annual inspections, suggesting consistent upkeep recently. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,360 miles per year. There was a notable period of more frequent use between July 2021 and January 2022, where the car covered over 12,800 miles in just six months. However, usage has slowed significantly more recently, with only 2,906 miles recorded between the last two tests, which may indicate the car is currently used for shorter trips or has sat idle for longer periods. While the recent history is clean of recorded faults, a buyer should perform a thorough physical inspection of areas prone to age-related wear and high mileage on this specific model. It is essential to check for structural corrosion on the chassis and sills, as well as the condition of the suspension bushes and shock dampers. Given the hybrid nature of the powertrain, the buyer should also verify the health of the hybrid battery and ensure the cooling system is functioning correctly, as these components are not fully covered by the standard MOT inspection.
