2009 Honda FR-V 1.8L Petrol · GY09 AEV

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-12-09 at 139,913 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Prior tests show intermittent failures in 2024-11-14 and 2023-11-10, both at similar mileages, but these were resolved swiftly, as evidenced by the subsequent pass in 2024-12-06. The absence of recorded defects in the latest test suggests the owner addressed prior issues, though the recurring failures may hint at unresolved minor faults requiring closer scrutiny. The vehicle’s mileage of 139,913 miles over 17 years aligns with an average of 8,230 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for its age. The MOT records show consistent testing intervals, with a notable gap between 2023-11-28 (124,832 miles) and 2024-11-10 (124,829 miles), which appears to be a data anomaly or oversight. The rapid retest in 2024-12-06, just 25 miles after the failure, suggests immediate corrective action. Overall, the data is sparse but clean, with no evidence of excessive wear or neglect beyond the recorded failures. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, for signs of wear, as these are common failure points in older vehicles. The braking system, including calipers and discs, warrants attention due to the history of failures, even if no defects were explicitly noted. Corrosion, especially in the exhaust system and underbody, should be checked, as it often develops in vehicles of this age. The lack of detailed defect reports means a physical inspection is critical to confirm the vehicle’s roadworthiness beyond the MOT records.
