2002 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · HC02 AFC

The vehicle presents an uncertain roadworthiness status due to a significant gap in testing data spanning nearly five years. The last recorded test occurred in September 2021 at 118,292 miles, where it failed with no specific defects listed, and there is no subsequent pass to verify any repairs. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle is over four years overdue for its MOT, meaning the current mechanical integrity and safety-critical components cannot be verified without an immediate physical inspection. The mileage profile is notably low for a 24-year-old Honda, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. Between April 2018 and September 2020, the vehicle covered roughly 6,500 miles, indicating infrequent use. However, the mileage record stops abruptly after the September 2021 failure. While low mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of inactivity often lead to the degradation of rubber components, seized brake calipers, and internal corrosion, which are more likely to occur on a vehicle of this age that has sat stationary for an extended duration. A buyer must prioritize a thorough structural inspection focusing on the chassis and subframes for corrosion, as this is a common weakness for this generation of CR-V. Because the record lacks recent certification, you should check for perished suspension bushes, cracked coolant hoses, and leaking seals. The braking system requires close scrutiny for rusted discs or seized pistons, as the low-mileage history often masks mechanical neglect that only surfaces when the vehicle is driven regularly again.
