2012 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · C10 JBX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the latest testing data. The most recent MOT conducted on 22 August 2025 at 124,861 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a previous failure just four days prior at nearly identical mileage. This pattern of failing and immediately passing in both 2024 and 2025 suggests that the owner is proactive in rectifying identified issues immediately to secure a pass, rather than allowing mechanical or structural faults to accumulate. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the car covered 8,076 miles, while it covered 5,886 miles in the subsequent year leading to the 2025 tests. This steady rate indicates regular use rather than long periods of stationary time, which is generally beneficial for maintaining rubber seals, brake components, and engine systems against the dry rot and corrosion often seen in low-mileage older vehicles. While the recent records show a clean sheet, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and the underbody. Given the age of the Honda CR-V, wear on suspension bushes, control arm joints, and coil springs is common regardless of clean MOT results. The buyer should also check for structural corrosion on the exhaust system and mounting points, as the MOT test does not always capture minor surface rust. Since the most recent tests resulted in immediate passes without recorded defects, verifying the brake system for binding calipers or uneven pad wear remains a prudent step to ensure the mechanical reality matches the digital record.
