2007 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · FM57 FPV

The 2007 Honda CR-V presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 28 February 2024 at 135,523 miles, with a clean result and no advisories. The maintenance trend is stable and unremarkable. Prior to that pass, the vehicle failed on 14 February 2024 at 135,465 miles, yet the record shows no defects recorded against the failure, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. A similar pattern occurred on 3 February 2023, when the CR-V failed and passed on the same day at 124,534 miles with no defects logged. The recorded mileage sits at 135,523 against an age of around 19 years, equating to roughly 7,133 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this class and period. The odometer advanced from 116,700 miles at the February 2022 test to 124,534 by February 2023, then to 135,465 by mid-February 2024, showing consistent annual use of about 8,000 to 11,000 miles with no sudden accumulation or prolonged standing. The DVSA data is sparse, carrying only pass and defect-free entries aside from the two anomalous failures, so no wear-driven consumable replacements or structural concerns are documented across the visible history. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of core mechanical items not captured by a clean MOT sheet. At 135,000 miles the suspension bushes, front coil springs, and rear trailing arm mounts on a CR-V of this generation warrant hands-on checks for fatigue or play. Brake disc thickness and caliper operation should be verified, as binding calipers or lipped discs develop silently between tests. Examine the sills, subframe, and suspension mounting points for corrosion, since the MOT record lists no structural advisories but does not confirm underside condition. The twin unexplained failures with zero defects suggest the prior owner used a single garage that may have retested without rectification; confirm the V5C and ask the seller for service invoices to validate routine oil changes and timing belt intervals.
