2009 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · CU09 BWW

The 2009 Honda CR-V presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 25 June 2025 at 118,609 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, though the prior day's failure on 24 June 2025 at the same mileage with no defects recorded points to an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five years of data the vehicle cleared every test once properly submitted, indicating no recurring advisories or worsening condition. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,977 miles per year against the 118,609 miles recorded. The records show steady accumulation: 88,735 miles in June 2022, 99,054 in June 2023, 110,433 in June 2024, and 118,609 by June 2025. That is about 10,000 to 11,000 miles added each year, a consistent light-to-moderate use pattern with no standing gaps or sudden high-use spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on detail, listing no advisories at any stage, so the clean sheets give no warning of worn consumables or hidden corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the car. The MOT record flags nothing on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural integrity, but a Honda of this age can harbour underbody corrosion around sills and subframes that a test bay may miss if not lifted. Check the rear trailing arm mounts and exhaust hangers for rust. Given the unexplained fail-then-pass on consecutive June 2025 dates, confirm with the seller which garage processed the work and request the VT20 and VT30 documents. Verify the odometer reading matches the service book, and test-drive to feel for binding calipers or worn dampers that a no-defect MOT will not capture.
