HONDA CR-V2016 · 1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean MOT record over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 157,395 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed potential mechanical issues before they resulted in a test failure. The absence of recurring advisories suggests that the vehicle has remained in good operational condition despite the high mileage. The mileage accumulation is consistent and significant, averaging approximately 16,000 miles per annum. Between the January 2022 test at 91,648 miles and the 2026 test at 157,395 miles, the car covered over 65,000 miles. This pattern suggests regular long-distance driving rather than short city trips, which often helps preserve the exhaust system and engine-related components from carbon buildup. The intervals between tests are regular and annual, showing a disciplined approach to maintaining the vehicle's legal road status. Given the clean MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on components most susceptible to high-mileage wear rather than documented faults. A buyer must examine the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these often degrade after 150,000 miles. The brake system should also be checked for thin discs or uneven pad wear, as the record does not flag binding calipers. While the chassis shows no structural corrosion, checking for rust on the sills and members remains a standard requirement to ensure the high-frequency use has not compromised the integrity of the frame.
