Before you view it
The Honda Integra's most common MOT issues, turned into things to ask about or look for.
Listen for knocks over speed bumps and ask about recent control-arm or anti-roll-bar work.
Inspect the suspension carefully and ask the seller for repair history.
Check tread depth across the full width on all four; uneven wear suggests alignment or suspension issues.
Check ride height is even side-to-side and look for cracked or rusted coils.
Check the car’s number plate on MOT Wise to see its own MOT history and any recalls for its build years.

Each generation is shown at 7 years old if it has at least 100 MOT tests at that age. If not, or if its cars are too new to be 7, it's shown at another age. We try ages close to 7 first. Newer generations have fewer years of data.

Each row is one generation of the Integra, shown at the age printed under its fail rate. So rows can be different ages. Fail rate is the share of MOT tests that ended in a fail, retests included. A rating is given only when there are enough tests to place the fail rate in one rating band with 95% confidence.
By age
This chart combines every Honda Integra ever sold. It's good for the big picture. For one generation, scroll up to the build-year cards.
Fail rate is the share of MOT tests that ended in a fail. Retests count as tests. How we count fail rates Build years are worked out from age, so they are approximate. Tests counted are 2025 MOTs. Highest fail rate at 19 years old.
All generations of this model

All generations of this model
The pairs seen most often when an MOT on 25+ year old Honda Integras notes problems with more than one part of the car.
Both were noted at the same test. That doesn't mean one caused the other.
Across 114 MOT tests on Honda Integra cars built before 2000 (over 25 years old) where more than one part of the car was noted.
Still registered
How many of these are still registered in the UK, and what's been recalled across the model.
Not enough registration data to show this for the Honda Integra.
The share still registered can reflect demand, the cost of repairs, exports, write-offs and how owners use the car. It isn't proof of how long the car lasts mechanically.
No recall notices match this build period.
