2012 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · AH12 LEZ

The 2012 Honda CR-V presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 26 July 2025 at 114,662 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the preceding four annual tests show the same outcome. The maintenance trend is steady with no worsening faults, advisories, or repeated failures across the five-year DVSA history provided. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. The records show 92,283 miles in July 2021, rising to 97,211 by July 2022, 102,974 by July 2023, 107,779 by July 2024, and 114,662 by July 2025. That equates to roughly 5,000 to 7,000 miles per year, below the 8,190 average implied by the odometer. No gaps or sudden accumulation appear; the clean sheet across every entry suggests the previous owner kept the SUV to a conservative commuting schedule and addressed issues before each test. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection despite the unbroken pass record. The MOT dataset carries no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion, yet a car of this age can hide surface rust on sills and subframes that a visual test may miss. Check the exhaust emissions system and underbody for age-related deterioration. Given the lack of flagged defects, previous ownership points to disciplined basic upkeep rather than deferred consumable neglect. Verify service history matches the low annual mileage, and confirm timing belt and fluid intervals were honoured outside the MOT scope.
