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

This 2002 Honda has 28 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 41,014 miles. The very low annual mileage of 2,437 miles per year, combined with a 24-year-old vehicle, presents significant unverified wear and safety risks.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 2,437 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 1,164 miles between Mar 2024 and Mar 2025). This pattern is highly unusual and raises serious concerns about its true condition and maintenance.

Things to check

  • Recurring major suspension failures (Mar 2023, Mar 2024) and excessive corrosion (Mar 2024, Mar 2026).
  • Persistent tyre damage advisories (Mar 2019, Mar 2020) and recent headlamp advisories (Mar 2026).
  • Very low annual mileage (2,437 mi/yr) for a 24-year-old vehicle, indicating potential long-term neglect.
  • Multiple recurring minor defects (steering, lights) across various tests, suggesting chronic maintenance issues.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until March 2027, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
  • No recorded dangerous defects (e.g., brake failure, steering fault) in the MOT history.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory, despite very low annual usage, shows no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • The vehicle has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, indicating a strong safety foundation for its age.
