AI verdict AVOID 44/100

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

This 2007 Honda has 23 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 38,320 miles. The mileage trajectory is inconsistent, and a 2020 service gap raises further red flags.

The mileage trajectory is highly inconsistent, showing only 4,155 miles between July 2019 and January 2021, followed by a significant spike to 11,010 miles between March 2024 and August 2025.

Things to check

  • Four DANGEROUS defects recorded across various safety-critical systems (brakes, bodywork, lights, tyres, suspension, steering).
  • Six test failures in 12 MOTs, with the most recent failure in August 2025 and a subsequent PASS.
  • Consistent pattern of recurring advisories escalating to dangerous failures on critical components like tyres and brakes.
  • A 2020 service gap is noted, suggesting potential periods of neglect or off-road use.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate until August 2026, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT history.
  • The Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2022) suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
