Our Verdict
Proceed with extreme caution. This 2005
If you are considering this vehicle, your primary focus must be on the underside. The 2021 MOT history explicitly notes corrosion on both front lower suspension arms and the rear sub-frame. You should request a professional underside inspection to determine if this corrosion is progressing beyond the 'not seriously weakened' stage noted in the records.
Additionally, check the status of the Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) warning lamp fault mentioned in the 2021 failure. Ensure this has been rectified, as an airbag fault is a significant safety concern. Negotiate the price downwards to account for potential upcoming structural repairs or the need for replacement suspension components.
As a 2.2L diesel, running costs will be influenced by fuel prices and potential ULEZ/Clean Air Zone charges depending on your location. Tax and insurance groups for a 2005 CR-V vary, but you should expect mid-range costs typical for a large SUV.
Maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the age of the vehicle and the specific corrosion issues identified. Budget for potential replacement of suspension arms, sub-frame repairs, and tyre replacements, as the MOT history already shows tyre wear issues.
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the chassis and sub-frame. The 2021 MOT history recorded corrosion on the nearside and offside front lower suspension arms, as well as the rear sub-frame. You need to see if these areas have been treated or if the rust is spreading.
Check the braking system, specifically looking for signs of the 'binding' issue noted in the 2021 failure. Finally, verify that the SRS (airbag) warning light is no longer illuminated and that the fault recorded in the 2021 MOT has been professionally addressed.
This 2.2L diesel Honda CR-V has covered 127,631 miles as of its last recorded MOT in 2021. While the model has a high aggregate pass rate of 82.5%, this specific vehicle's history includes multiple corrosion-related failures on suspension components and the rear sub-frame. The mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 7,044 miles per year.
While the aggregate data shows a solid 82.5% pass rate for this model, common failure points across the fleet include headlamps, ball joints, and corrosion.
