291 real MOT outcomes analysed

1989 Honda Accord Aerodeck Ex Auto

CarHunch is tracking 291 1989 Honda Accord Aerodeck Ex Auto vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 1989 Honda Accord Aerodeck is effectively off the road: all 291 vehicles analysed failed their MOT on first attempt, compared to the UK average pass rate of 80%, and none have ever passed an MOT in our dataset. At 35 years old, every example in this cohort is now non-compliant with current road safety standards and legally cannot be driven on public roads.

These cars are museum pieces or restoration projects only—the zero-failure and zero-advisory averages reflect that functional vehicles have long since been scrapped or permanently sidelined. If you're considering one, factor in a complete mechanical rebuild and expect it to remain a cherished classic or display item rather than practical transport.

We have 291 1989 Honda Accord Aerodeck Ex Auto vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.

What to check before buying a 1989 Honda Accord Aerodeck Ex Auto

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
