2013 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · FX63 RKK

A pattern of recurring tyre wear and brake component depletion defines the mechanical history of this vehicle, though the most recent MOT on 26 June 2026 shows no recorded defects. While the vehicle has moved from a dangerous failure regarding offside front tyre tread depth in July 2024 to a clean pass in the latest test, the preceding years show a consistent trend of advisories related to uneven tyre wear and thinning brake pads. This suggests that while the vehicle is currently meeting minimum legal standards, it has historically required attention to consumables and potentially alignment or suspension components to address the edge wear noted on several occasions. The recorded mileage of 58,429 miles for a 2013 registration indicates a low annual usage rate of approximately 4,495 miles. Such low mileage over a thirteen-year period can mean that mechanical components have been subjected to less cumulative friction and heat than a high-mileage equivalent, but it also implies the vehicle may spend significant time stationary. In the context of the MOT history, the frequent advisories for tyres being worn on the edges and brake pads reaching the 2mm limit suggest that when the vehicle is in use, it may be subjected to specific driving conditions or mechanical setups that accelerate the wear of these specific items. Prospective buyers should pay close attention to the tyre and braking history during a physical inspection and test drive. The repeated advisories for tyres being worn on the edges, specifically noted on the nearside front and various rear positions, warrant a close look at the current tread profiles and a check for any obvious camber or toe issues. On a test drive, listen for any uneven road noise or vibrations that could indicate irregular tyre wear, and monitor the steering for any pulling to one side. Given the 2022 advisories regarding brake pads being over 3/4 worn on both front sides and thin on the rear, it is essential to verify the current thickness of the pads and the condition of the discs to ensure no warping or excessive thinning has occurred. Furthermore, the brake system should be evaluated for any pedal judder or changes in feel, as the history shows multiple instances where brake pads were approaching the legal limit. While the 2024 failure for a non-working central upper stop lamp was rectified, the overall history of consumables suggests that maintenance of the braking system and tyre management is a recurring requirement for this vehicle. Ensure that the current set of tyres does not show the same edge-wear patterns flagged in previous years, as this would indicate an ongoing issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry that has not been fully addressed.
