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

This 2008 Honda Civic is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 March 2026 at 128,057 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test three days prior on 23 March 2026, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a clerical error or a minor issue resolved immediately. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age. It has covered approximately 7,114 miles per year over 18 years. The distance between tests has remained steady, with 9,792 miles added between March 2023 and March 2024, and 5,397 miles between March 2024 and March 2025. The most recent interval from March 2025 to March 2026 saw an increase of 6,458 miles. The MOT history is exceptionally clean for a vehicle of this vintage. There are no recorded advisories or failures relating to suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion across the last four years of testing. This lack of flagged defects suggests a disciplined approach to maintenance by previous owners. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody for structural corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook early-stage rust on subframes unless it compromises safety. Given the age and mileage, checking for wear on the clutch and timing chain noise is advisable, as these mechanical components are not always captured by a standard MOT inspection.
