2013 Honda Civic 1.8L Petrol · SA13 USB

The vehicle currently maintains a clean bill of health, with the most recent test conducted on 25 July 2025 resulting in a pass with zero recorded defects. This outcome continues a consistent trend of compliance established since the 2023 testing cycle. While the record shows a failed test on 7 July 2023, the immediate retest on the same day resulted in a pass with no faults, suggesting the initial failure may have been a minor administrative error or a quickly rectified consumable issue rather than a systemic mechanical failure. With a total of 78,243 miles accumulated over thirteen years, the vehicle averages approximately 6,000 miles per annum. This usage pattern is moderate and consistent with typical urban or suburban driving. The absence of advisories across the last four years of testing indicates that the previous owner likely adhered to a proactive maintenance schedule, as the suspension, braking system, and structural components have remained free of the degradation often seen in older, neglected examples of this model. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are common wear items that may not always trigger an advisory until they reach the limit of their service life. Given the age of the vehicle, check the underside for surface corrosion on the subframes and exhaust system, even though the MOT history suggests the structural integrity remains sound. Verify that the engine bay is free of oil leaks and that the suspension bushes show no signs of perishing, as these rubber components can degrade due to age regardless of low mileage accumulation.
