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

This 2008 Honda has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 57,693 miles. The high mileage and past failures suggest increased wear and maintenance needs.

The vehicle shows high annual usage averaging 13,234 miles/year, with a notable 2014 service gap and a 562-mile retest anomaly on 24 Mar 2011.

Things to check

  • High mileage (112,479 miles) for a 2008 vehicle indicates significant wear and tear.
  • 2014 MOT gap suggests a period of off-road use or lack of maintenance.
  • Recurring lighting advisories (2011, 2015, 2016) suggest a persistent electrical or sensor issue.
  • Unusually large 562-mile retest difference on 24 Mar 2011 indicates a potential odometer discrepancy.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent MOT pass history since 2011, showing responsible retesting and repairs.
  • No recurring major mechanical failures (e.g., engine, transmission) in the MOT record.
  • Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2022) indicates a strong safety record for its era.
  • The high mileage suggests a well-used vehicle, potentially with fewer hidden mechanical issues.
