Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following a pass on 28 January 2026 at 137,808 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test came two days after a failure on 26 January 2026 at the same mileage, though the DVSA entry records no defects against either outcome. A prior failure on 24 January 2025 at 129,656 miles also shows no recorded defects before a pass on the same day. These paired fail-pass entries at identical mileages suggest administrative or presentation anomalies at the testing station rather than progressive mechanical deterioration. The odometer reads 137,808 miles against a nine-year service life, equating to roughly 15,312 miles per year and placing this Civic above average use for its age. Mileage advanced from 115,584 at the January 2024 test to 129,656 by January 2025, then to 137,808 by January 2026, a steady annual accumulation near 12,000 to 14,000 miles with no standing periods or abrupt jumps. The supplied record is sparse, showing three passes and two same-day failures across three years, and no advisories or defects appear at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high mileage and absence of recorded advisories that typically surface on cars covering this distance. The repeated no-defect failures warrant verification of the VIN and test documentation to confirm the entries reflect genuine roadworthiness rather than clerical error. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions remain unflagged, but physical checks for corrosion underneath and tyre tread depth are prudent on a high-mileage 2017 hatchback.
