HONDA HR-V2002 · 1.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a deteriorating mechanical profile characterized by a pattern of reactive rather than proactive maintenance. While it passed its most recent test on 24 February 2026 at 105,363 miles, it had failed just two weeks prior due to critical ABS faults and multiple engine mounting failures. The transition from a defective gearbox mounting in 2024 to three failing engine mounts in 2026 suggests that rubber supports are only being addressed once they reach a point of excessive movement. At 105,363 miles over 24 years, the HR-V shows an exceptionally low annual average of approximately 4,390 miles per year. However, the data reveals a significant gap in testing between August 2024 and February 2026, during which the vehicle covered only 1,393 miles. This period of infrequent use likely correlates with the degradation of rubber-based components, evidenced by the perished nearside front tyre, deteriorated fuel cap seal, and various worn suspension bushes identified in the February 2026 record. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking and suspension systems. The tester flagged an offside front brake binding and corrosion on the offside rear brake pipe and hoses, which indicates potential fluid ingress or seized calipers. The recurring advisories regarding worn rear suspension arm pins and trailing arm bushes suggest the rear end requires comprehensive component replacement to maintain handling precision. Furthermore, the persistent engine management light and the previous ABS failure require a professional diagnostic scan to ensure these electronic faults have not been merely cleared without repair.
