MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Honda Civic (SM02 EFT) between August 2006 and April 2015.

The record contains 10 passes and 7 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (15 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
