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 18 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 38,797 miles.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,095 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though annual usage has significantly decreased since 2019.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension/steering failures (Oct 2018, Oct 2024) and advisories (Oct 2018, Oct 2024) indicate chronic wear.
  • Persistent tyre advisories (Oct 2018, Oct 2021, Oct 2022, Nov 2023) suggest a history of poor maintenance.
  • Major failures for steering (Oct 2018, Oct 2024) and emissions (Oct 2024) highlight significant past issues.
  • The 2019 advisory for 'Brake pad(s) wearing thin' on both front and rear, though not flagged later, points to significant wear.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until November 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its age (7,095 mi/yr) suggests no odometer fraud.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
