2011 HONDA CR-V2.2L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes without recorded defects. The most recent test on 28 September 2021 at 80,573 miles resulted in no failures or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met the required standards at that time. This trend suggests a proactive approach to maintenance or a vehicle that endured minimal stress during the recorded period. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 2011 registration, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. Between February February 2018 at 61,411 miles and September 2021 at 80,573 miles, the car covered just 19,162 miles. There is a significant gap in usage between the February 2020 and February 2021 tests, where the vehicle covered only 2,395 miles in over twelve months. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, long periods of standing can lead to degradation of rubber-based components and fluid oxidation. A buyer must account for the fact that the last MOT is now nearly five years old, rendering the historical data obsolete for determining current safety. The physical inspection should focus on signs of age-related neglect, such as perished tyres, cracked brake hoses, or seized calipers resulting from infrequent use. Given the vehicle's age, checking the chassis for structural corrosion and the suspension arm bushes is critical, as these issues often manifest over time regardless of the miles driven.
