Insight summary

Honda Sh is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 1,885 represented vehicles and 0.00% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 85.7% from 15,580 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 54. The current pool shows an average of 44,386 miles and an average age of 8.4 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 48,446 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, and the most frequent defect themes are brake pads, lighting and tyre condition. The practical read is that the Honda Sh looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
