2016 Honda CR-V 1.6L Diesel · CV16 WLF

The 2016 Honda CR-V demonstrates a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2025-05-16 at 61,517 miles recording no defects. All subsequent tests from 2022 to 2025 show consistent passing results, with no critical failures or advisories. The absence of recurring mechanical issues in the MOT history suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements. However, the 2023-05-16 test recorded a failure despite identical mileage and date as a passing result, raising potential data inconsistencies that warrant verification. The vehicle’s mileage of 61,517 miles aligns with an average annual usage of 6,152 miles, typical for its 10-year age. The progression from 43,805 miles in 2022 to 61,517 miles in 2025 shows steady accumulation without abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity, indicating regular use. No significant gaps in testing are evident, with annual MOTs conducted consistently. This pattern suggests the owner prioritized compliance, though it does not confirm proactive maintenance beyond legal minimums. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common wear items in older SUVs, and check for corrosion on the exhaust system, which may degrade over time. The absence of brake-related defects in MOT records is reassuring, but a physical inspection of brake discs and calipers is advisable to confirm no hidden issues. Structural rust, particularly in body seams or underbody panels, should also be assessed, as it can develop in vehicles of this age without visible signs in MOT tests.
