2017 Honda Civic 1.0L Petrol · TF07 SUE

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 23 December 2025 at 42,033 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This streak of clean passes across the last five years indicates a vehicle that has been maintained to a good mechanical standard and has not suffered from recurring structural failures or persistent faults common in this model. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old car, averaging approximately 4,700 miles annually. Between May 2021 at 16,550 miles and December 2025 at 42,033 miles, the car covered 25,483 miles, suggesting a pattern of light use. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the intervals between tests show the vehicle has been used infrequently. Such low-mileage usage occasionally leads to flat-spot tyres, perished brake fluid, or degraded rubber-based components if the car sat stationary for extended periods between journeys. Since the record shows no historical advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake calipers, or exhaust corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on the effects of low usage. A buyer should check for surface rust on the brake discs and ensure the calipers are not seized due to lack of frequent use. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the condition of the tyre age and the integrity of the rubber bushings is essential, as tread depth may remain high while the material itself has hardened and degraded over time.
