2013 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · EY63 ABK

This 2013 Honda CR-V has maintained a consistent MOT pass record across five consecutive tests, all conducted without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 2025-10-03 at 93,602 miles confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has been subject to either diligent maintenance or a history of minor issues that were either non-critical or successfully addressed between tests. The mileage progression of approximately 7,200 miles annually aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age, without any abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. Each annual test occurred within a narrow window—typically within a week of the previous year’s date—indicating regular compliance with MOT requirements. There are no gaps in the record that would suggest extended periods of neglect, though the lack of advisories does not guarantee hidden issues in components like suspension bushes or drivetrain components. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of high-wear areas that are not routinely tested. The suspension—particularly coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers—should be examined for uneven wear or corrosion, as these components are not always flagged in MOTs but can significantly impact handling and safety. Brake discs and calipers, while not failed in past tests, warrant close scrutiny for uneven wear, binding, or excessive corrosion, especially given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion and wheel arch integrity, should also be assessed, as these issues often develop gradually and may not appear in MOT records until they reach critical stages. Finally, the condition of the exhaust system and emissions-related components should be verified, as catalytic converter efficiency can degrade over time without immediate MOT consequences.
