2007 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · CU07 KUX

The most recent MOT on 16 October 2024 at 135,764 miles recorded a pass, indicating the vehicle is currently roadworthy. The preceding failure on 15 October 2024 at 135,762 miles was rectified within a day, showing a stable maintenance trend. Recurring issues such as steering rack bush play and a minor rear‑exhaust leak have persisted but remain within acceptable limits after repair. At 19 years old the odometer reads 135,764 miles, giving an average of roughly 7,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage rose from 133,431 miles in April 2022 to the current figure in October 2024, a modest increase of just over 2,300 miles in two and a half years, suggesting periods of low utilisation rather than abrupt spikes. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the front steering rack, paying particular attention to the internal bush wear noted on both nearside and offside sides across multiple tests. The rear‑exhaust joint corrosion flagged in 2022 and again in 2024 warrants a visual inspection for any progressive rust that could affect emissions or structural integrity. Front tyre tread should be examined for edge wear, as the offside tyre has repeatedly approached the legal limit, and the offside tyre with exposed ply recorded in 2018 should be confirmed as replaced. Brake pads were reported as thin in 2017; a check of current pad thickness and disc condition is advisable. Overall the MOT record reflects a vehicle that has been kept within legal standards, with no major structural failures. The recurring minor faults are typical for an ageing model and can be addressed with routine maintenance. Provided the buyer confirms the steering rack bush integrity, exhaust joint condition, tyre health, and brake wear, the car should remain a dependable purchase.
