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 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 53,211 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of neglect in critical safety systems demands thorough investigation.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage (929 mi/yr equivalent) from 2009 to 2021, followed by a significant spike to 14,275 miles/year from 2021 onwards, indicating a major usage change.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failures recorded in Mar 2021 and Mar 2022, indicating severe neglect.
  • Recurring brake disc wear advisories (Mar 2021, Mar 2022) show a clear pattern of deferred maintenance.
  • Major suspension failure (nearside front shock absorber leak) in Mar 2022, following an advisory in 2019.
  • Mileage anomaly: extremely low usage (929 mi/yr equivalent) from 2009 to 2021, then high usage (14,275 mi/yr).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2022) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers in the provided data.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, albeit with a history of recurring failures.
  • Consistent annual mileage post-2021, suggesting regular use after initial low usage.
