2015 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · AP65 CDE

The 2015 Honda CR-V presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 23 December 2025 at 24,618 miles passing with zero defects. Every recorded annual test back to 2021 has returned a pass with no advisories or failures, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep and no emerging faults across the last five years. The mileage profile is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle. Annual increments have remained steady, rising from 18,356 miles in December 2021 to 24,618 miles by December 2025, averaging roughly 1,380 miles per year over that five-year window. The current recorded mileage of 24,618 miles equates to approximately 2,238 miles per year across the vehicle's life, which is well below the UK average. No sudden jumps or gaps appear in the record, suggesting regular but light use rather than long periods of dormancy. Despite the clean MOT history, a low-mileage vehicle of this age still warrants careful physical inspection. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers can perish through age and standing rather than mileage, so check for perishing, cracking, or uneven ride height. Examine the underside for surface corrosion on subframes, brake lines, and exhaust components, as short-trip use accelerates moisture-related rust. Inspect tyre date codes and sidewalls for age-related cracking, since the low annual mileage may mean the original or near-original tyres are still fitted. Brake discs, calipers, and handbrake mechanisms should be checked for seizure or binding, common on vehicles covering short distances where components do not reach operating temperature regularly. Verify the condition of rubber hoses, coolant, and oil seals, as infrequent use can lead to fluid degradation and perished elastomers. The MOT record confirms sound mechanical condition, but a pre-purchase inspection focused on age-related deterioration rather than wear is the sensible approach.
