Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage
When reviewing this vehicle, prioritise the service history to confirm when the clutch and timing components were last replaced, as these are critical for high-mileage diesel engines of this era. Use the recent MOT failures as a negotiation point; specifically, check if the rear coil springs flagged as corroded in May 2026 have since been replaced.
Ensure that the repairs carried out for the 2025 failures—specifically the anti-roll bar linkages and rear brake discs—were performed using quality parts and are backed by invoices. Given the age of the vehicle, a full mechanical inspection is recommended to ensure no further suspension degradation is present.
The 2.2L diesel engine is designed for efficiency over longer distances, though it will sit in a higher tax bracket than the smaller petrol variants. Insurance costs are typically moderate for this model, but maintenance costs are likely to increase as the vehicle approaches two decades of use.
Annual expenditure will be driven by fuel and the necessity for preventative maintenance on the suspension and braking systems, which have shown wear in the last two years. Expect a higher-than-average maintenance budget to keep the vehicle roadworthy.
Pay close attention to the suspension. The MOT history explicitly mentions corroded rear coil springs in May 2026 and worn anti-roll bar linkage ball joints in July 2025; verify the current state of these components. Check the nearside front tyre for uneven wear, as the May 2026 test noted it was worn on the edge, which could indicate an alignment issue.
Inspect the rear brake discs to ensure they are in good condition following the failure recorded in 2025. Additionally, test the windscreen washer system, as this has been a recurring failure point in both 2025 and 2026.
This blue 2007 Honda Civic 2.2L diesel has recorded 112,180 miles. The MOT history shows a clean pass in 2024, followed by failures in 2025 and 2026 involving anti-roll bar linkages, rear brake discs, and coil springs. The most recent test in May 2026 was passed, but it carries advisories for corroded rear coil springs and tyre wear.
Based on aggregate data from 329,048 vehicles, this model has a 78.1% MOT pass rate, with tyres and exhausts being the most common failure points.
