2012 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · GV61 DYN

The 2012 Honda CR-V presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 April 2025 at 195,094 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from April 2022 to April 2024 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failure on 27 March 2023 at 176,318 miles, which the record shows with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or unclassified rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Overall the test history indicates consistent annual compliance. Mileage stands at 195,094 on an approximately 14-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 13,935 miles per year, which is high for the age and points to sustained motorway or business use. The odometer moved from 160,103 miles at the April 2022 test to 176,671 by April 2023, then 187,551 in April 2024 and 195,094 in April 2025, a steady ~12,000 to 15,000 mile spread each year with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The DVSA data is sparse on advisories, showing no corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns across the timeline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the high mileage and age, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not capture incipient rust or worn coil springs. The drivetrain and suspension components have absorbed nearly 200,000 miles, so check for binding calipers, tired suspension bushes, and uneven tyre wear that a clean test might miss. The March 2023 failure with no defects recorded warrants a check of the original refusal reason to confirm it was not a suppressed mechanical issue.
