AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Honda has 17 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 59,128 miles. While it has a valid MOT now, the pattern of neglect in critical safety systems demands thorough investigation.

The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage (9,180 miles/yr) until Nov 2019, when a significant drop to 3,964 miles in 2020 occurred, followed by a return to normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake advisories (Dec 2020) and failures (Nov 2019, Dec 2020) indicate systemic neglect.
  • Major lighting failures (Dec 2020, Apr 2022) and minor electrical issues (Apr 2022) suggest electrical system wear.
  • A DANGEROUS tyre defect (Apr 2022) and a MAJOR shock absorber leak (Nov 2018) point to past poor maintenance.
  • A significant mileage drop from 8,259 miles/year to 3,964 miles/year in 2020 is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a current, valid MOT certificate as of May 2023.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,180 miles/year, typical for a 2009 model.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2022) indicates a strong safety record for its era.
