2008 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · AD58 VUE

The 2008 Honda CR-V currently holds a valid roadworthiness pass from the 10 November 2025 test at 187,781 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, though the vehicle failed the test on 5 November 2025 at 187,721 miles with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or unrecorded rectification rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or worsening patterns emerge from the five-year record. Mileage sits at 187,781 against an 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 10,400 miles per year which is typical for the age. The October 2022 test logged 162,605 miles, rising to 179,433 by October 2023 and 183,022 by October 2024, a steady 15,000 to 17,000 annual spread. A jump of 4,759 miles then occurred between late October 2024 and early November 2025. The DVSA data shows clean passes throughout with no corrosion, brake, suspension, or emissions flags, so the record itself is sparse on fault detail. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and 187,000-plus mileage. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear accumulate silently on high-mileage CR-Vs even when MOT testers log no advisories. The November 2025 fail with zero defects suggests the prior owner addressed a minor non-mechanical item quickly; verify the failure reason via the full DVLA certificate before purchase. Given the clean test lineage, previous owners appear to have kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumables. Confirm actual tyre tread, wiper condition, and exhaust emissions during a viewing, as these fall outside MOT pass thresholds until worn. The CR-V presents as roadworthy on paper with no recurring defect trend to flag.
