2016 Honda CR-V 1.6L Diesel · AE16 WVB

The 2016 Honda CR-V presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 February 2026 at 50,294 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, recurring advisories, or structural concerns across the available history. Annual mileage has been consistently low for a ten-year-old vehicle. The record shows 33,286 miles at the 14 February 2022 test, rising to 37,833 by 22 February 2023, 42,650 by 21 February 2024, 46,537 by 20 February 2025, and 50,294 by the February 2026 test. That averages roughly 4,200 miles per year with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The clean sheet across all entries suggests the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. Given the absence of any flagged items, a buyer should still verify in person what static records cannot reveal. Low-use cars of this age often develop corroding brake discs, seized calipers, or degraded suspension bushes through prolonged standing. Inspect the underside for structural rust and check the exhaust for internal rot not caught on a lift-free test. Confirm the service history matches the low mileage and look for tyre sidewall cracking from age rather than wear. The MOT data alone gives no cause for rejection, but a pre-purchase inspection remains sensible on any vehicle nearing a decade old.
