2008 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · CE58 MKF

The 2008 Honda CR-V holds a valid MOT certificate from the test on 8 July 2025, which passed with no defects or advisories recorded. That result extends a sequence of four consecutive passes stretching back to June 2022, each showing a clean sheet. The maintenance trend is stable, with no failures or recurring advisory items appearing in the available history. At 175,458 miles the vehicle averages roughly 9,700 miles per year over its 18-year life, a figure consistent with regular use. The MOT tests have been carried out at roughly twelve-month intervals — 25 June 2022, 24 June 2023, 25 June 2024 and 8 July 2025 — indicating no significant gaps in statutory inspection. The record does not capture the odometer reading at each test, so the exact annual accumulation cannot be verified from this data alone. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection focused on age and mileage related wear. Priority areas include the front and rear suspension bushes and ball joints, coil spring condition, brake disc and pad thickness, and the integrity of the brake hydraulic system including caliper operation. The exhaust system should be checked for corrosion and leaks, while the underbody — particularly sills, chassis legs and floorpan — requires close examination for structural rust. Given the mileage, the timing chain tensioner and guides on petrol models or the timing belt on diesel variants should be confirmed as serviced to schedule, and any evidence of oil or coolant leaks investigated. The MOT history confirms the vehicle met minimum legal standards at each test, but it does not replace a comprehensive pre-purchase inspection. Components that pass the test can still be near the end of their service life, especially on a high-mileage example of this age.
