2009 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · AV59 AAO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean pass results. The most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 94,308 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just five days prior at 94,297 miles. Given that the failure recorded no specific defects in the system, this discrepancy likely stemmed from a technical administrative error or a minor presentation issue that was rectified immediately before the retest, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is notably low for a seventeen-year-old Honda, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression from 77,586 miles in September 2022 to 94,308 miles in October 2025. This low annual usage suggests the vehicle has been used sparingly, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low-mileage vehicles of this age are often susceptible to age-related issues such as the degradation of rubber components and fluid oxidation if the car sits for long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to time-related wear despite the low mileage. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close check for rust on the underbody and rear subframe mounting points. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and the brake calipers for seizing, as low-frequency use can cause these components to bond. Additionally, verify the condition of the tyres for age rot, as the compound may harden despite having sufficient tread depth.
