Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus your attention on the service history to ensure the 1.0L engine has been maintained according to manufacturer intervals. While the MOT record is relatively clean, you should verify that the exhaust silencer issue from July 2025 was permanently resolved rather than temporarily patched.
Negotiate based on the remaining tyre tread and brake pad wear, as these are common wear-and-tear items for this model that do not always appear as failures until they reach a critical limit. Ensure all electronics and the infotainment system are functioning correctly, as these are key value drivers for the 2017 Civic.
The 988cc engine is designed for efficiency, placing this vehicle in a lower insurance group and a competitive road tax bracket. Fuel economy for this petrol variant is typically strong for urban and mixed driving, keeping monthly fuel bills manageable.
Typical maintenance costs for the Civic are moderate, though the turbocharged nature of the small engine requires quality oil changes. Total annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, are estimated to be between £1,100 and £1,400 depending on annual mileage.
Pay close attention to the exhaust system, specifically the rear silencer and its mountings, as this vehicle failed its 2025 MOT due to an insecure silencer. This is a known common failure point across the wider Civic model range according to aggregate data.
Additionally, inspect the tyres and headlamps. While this specific car has not failed on these items, they are among the top three most common MOT failure reasons for this model. Check for any uneven tyre wear which could indicate an alignment issue.
This black 2017 Honda Civic, powered by the 988cc petrol engine, has a recorded mileage of 65,966 miles as of July 2026. The MOT history shows four passes and one failure, with the most recent 2026 test recording no defects. It presents as a consistent example of the model with a history of few recorded faults.
The Honda Civic maintains a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 78.1%, suggesting a generally reliable platform.
