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

This 2004 Honda has 22 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 14,447 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' and 'Untaxed' with a 2021 expiry date.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 9,059 miles/year, but a critical 2004 head gasket failure is a major red flag for a 22-year-old vehicle.

Things to check

  • 2004 head gasket failure is a major unresolved safety concern for a 22-year-old vehicle.
  • MOT status is 'Not valid' with a 2021 expiry date, indicating a significant lapse in roadworthiness.
  • Recurring advisories on lights (4 times) and brakes (1 time) across multiple tests.
  • The 2007-07-02 MOT pass was recorded with a 14,447-mile reading, which is implausibly low for a 2004 vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2022): 5-star safety rating.
  • Low annual mileage of 9,059 miles/year is consistent with normal UK usage.
  • Recent MOT pass on 2020-09-01 with 151,627 miles is a positive sign of current roadworthiness.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, indicating the car is currently in a relatively good state.
