Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and thorough inspec
When viewing this CR-V, your primary focus should be on the mechanical integrity of the suspension and drivetrain. The MOT records from 2022 and 2025 highlight issues with suspension arm bushes and strut boots. You should check if these specific components have been replaced recently and request receipts to confirm the work was carried out.
Furthermore, the MOT history shows the 'propshaft not fitted' or 'removed' in 2022, 2023, and 2024. It is vital to confirm whether the vehicle is currently a two-wheel-drive model or if the propshaft was simply missing during those inspections. If you are looking for a four-wheel-drive vehicle, this is a critical point for negotiation or avoidance.
As a 2.0L petrol engine, running costs will be higher than a smaller diesel equivalent, particularly in urban driving. You should expect moderate fuel consumption consistent with a 2007 SUV.
Tax and insurance groups for this era of CR-V vary depending on the specific trim, but generally fall into mid-range brackets. Maintenance costs should be budgeted for regularly, given the documented history of suspension wear and tyre replacements. Estimated annual running costs are likely to be significant due to the vehicle's age and engine size.
Inspect the front suspension thoroughly. The 2025 MOT noted worn inner suspension arm bushes on both the nearside and offside fronts, and the 2022 test flagged split strut boots. Check for any knocking or creaking sounds when driving over bumps.
Examine the tyres and wheels. The history shows repeated advisories and failures for tyres being worn close to the legal limit or being damaged/perishing. Finally, verify the presence and condition of the propshaft to ensure the drivetrain is complete as per your requirements.
This 2007 Honda CR-V, finished in grey with a 2.0L petrol engine, has covered 168,184 miles as of its last MOT in October 2025. The MOT history reveals a pattern of wear, specifically regarding suspension bushes, strut boots, and tyre condition. Notably, the vehicle has been recorded with a missing or removed propshaft in multiple years, which should be verified.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 82.5% MOT pass rate, with common failure points including headlamps, ball joints, and corrosion.
