2009 Honda Insight 1.3L Petrol · SH09 GJF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 30 July 2025 at 128,528 miles. A failure recorded six days earlier on 24 July 2025 carried no defects, mirroring the identical pattern seen in 2024 where a failure on 29 July was followed by a pass on 30 July. The absence of recorded faults across successive tests indicates a stable maintenance record rather than a deteriorating trend. At 128,528 miles the 2009 Insight averages roughly 7,600 miles per year, a figure consistent with typical use for a car of this age. Mileage rose from 111,786 miles in July 2023 to 119,322 miles by July 2024, then to 128,386 miles by July 2025, showing steady, incremental accumulation without sudden spikes or prolonged gaps. The data set is clean, with no unexplained jumps that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive short‑term mileage. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of consumable items that are not captured in the MOT record. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as wear can accelerate beyond recorded mileage. Examine brake pads and discs for uneven wear or glazing, and check that the calipers move freely without binding. A visual survey of suspension components—coil springs, shock absorbers, and bushings—will confirm that the chassis remains sound. Finally, look for any surface corrosion on the bodywork and under‑carriage, and ensure the exhaust system is free of leaks, as these areas can develop issues despite a clean MOT history.
