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

This 2005 Honda has 15 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 60,107 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, making it unroadworthy and uninsurable.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with high annual usage, averaging 12,715 miles per year, which is significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.

Things to check

  • Not valid MOT since 2018-03-11, indicating it is currently unroadworthy.
  • Six major failures across critical safety systems (lights, tyres, windscreen, brakes, suspension) from 2010 to 2017.
  • High annual mileage (12,715 mi/yr) suggests heavy commercial or high-stress use, accelerating wear.
  • Recurring advisories for suspension arm and brake pad across multiple tests indicate chronic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and maintenance, despite MOT issues.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2022) indicates a strong safety record for its time.
  • No recent MOT failures, suggesting the owner addressed immediate issues for retests.
