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

This 2012 Honda has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 19,344 miles.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging only 4,381 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine light usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories across 8 tests (Feb 2019, Jan 2020, Jan 2022, Jan 2023, Jan 2024, Jan 2025, Jan 2026) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake disc advisories across 6 tests (Feb 2019, Jan 2020, Jan 2022, Jan 2023, Jan 2024, Jan 2025) point to a systemic issue.
  • Major bodywork failure (Offside Front Mirror casing, Jan 2022) suggests a significant impact history or poor repair.
  • Major tyre failures (Nearside Front, Offside Front, Nearside Rear, Jan 2020) and subsequent advisories show a pattern of neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for several years.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (4,381 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
