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 19 MOT tests on record with a 84% pass rate and 7,566 miles. While it has a valid MOT until 2027, the complete absence of records for 2014–2023 is a significant red flag.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 3,870 miles/year, with a significant 6-year gap in MOT records (2014–2023) that prevents any mileage verification.
Things to check
- Complete 6-year MOT history gap (2014–2023) — no records for 18 years.
- Mileage trajectory is highly suspicious with only 7,566 miles recorded in 18 years.
- Two DANGEROUS brake failures (Oct 2019, Oct 2021) and 12 related advisories.
- Recurring headlamp lens defects (Sep 2018, Nov 2023) and 3 minor light failures.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT until 2027-01-14, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT data.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2022 is a positive for safety features.
- The 1.34L petrol engine is known for its reliability and fuel efficiency.
