2005 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · CK05 KSF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 11 August 2025 at 171,462 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by re-tests. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the inspection just days before a successful re-test, suggesting that the owner addresses specific faults only when prompted by the tester rather than following a preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile is consistent with a 21-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,165 miles per year. There is a significant gap of nearly 9,700 miles between the June 2023 test and the June 2024 test, followed by a very low accumulation of only 221 miles between June 2024 and August 2025. This sudden drop in usage suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary or been used very sparingly until recently, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, fluid breakdown, or seized brake calipers that the re-tests clearly had to resolve. Despite the clean results of the most recent passes, a buyer must inspect the vehicle for common age-related wear typical of this model. The high mileage and age require close attention to structural corrosion on the rear subframe, brake pipes, and exhaust system. Given the recent failures, the buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are frequent points of failure on high-mileage CR-Vs. A physical check for oil leaks is also necessary to ensure the period of low mileage has not caused seals to dry out.
