2001 Honda Integra 2.0L Petrol · WD51 LRN

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward developing suspension-related wear. The most recent test on August 24, 2025, at 88,474 miles identified a distorted nearside rear road wheel and slight play in the front track rod end ball joint. These issues represent a departure from the clean record seen in May 2024, indicating that the steering and suspension components are now beginning to require attention due to age and material fatigue despite the low mileage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 25-year-old vehicle, averaging only approximately 3,500 miles per year. There is a significant anomaly in the data between June 2014, where the car recorded 101,816 miles, and June 2015, where it showed 67,161 miles, suggesting an odometer discrepancy or a period of long storage followed by recent use. Such low-frequency use often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals, which is evidenced by the recurring reports of perished dust covers and bushes across multiple years. A buyer must prioritize inspecting the front suspension assembly, as the history shows a persistent pattern of deteriorating ball joint dust covers and worn Macpherson strut pins dating back to 2017 and 2022. The recent discovery of play in the track rod end suggests that the steering geometry is now reaching the end of its functional life for those components. Additionally, the distorted rear wheel should be checked for impact damage that could affect the alignment or wheel bearing. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check for structural corrosion in the sills and wheel arches is essential, as low mileage does not prevent oxidation on stationary vehicles.
