2013 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · BG63 FWE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive ownership style. The most recent test on 17 November 2025 at 136,493 miles resulted in a failure due to an inoperative registration lamp and poor tyre condition. While the vehicle passed immediately upon retest, the recurring nature of lighting and tyre issues suggests the owner only addresses faults when forced by the MOT tester rather than performing routine preventative checks. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per year. Between November 2024 at 117,176 miles and November 2025 at 136,493 miles, the car covered 19,317 miles in a single year. This sharp increase in usage compared to the historical average indicates accelerated wear on components like the suspension and drivetrain. There are no significant gaps in the MOT history, confirming the vehicle has remained in regular use throughout the previous years. A buyer should closely inspect the front braking system, as the record shows thin pads in 2022 at 86,602 miles and worn discs by 2023 at 100,883 miles. Given the high mileage since those entries, the current components are likely nearing the end of their functional life. The nearside front tyre showing uneven wear in the 2025 test suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that requires professional investigation to prevent further tyre degradation. Additionally, the cracking noted on the nearside rear tyre indicates the rubber is perishing and poses a safety risk regardless of remaining tread depth.
