2014 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · JC55 HLC

The 2014 Honda CR-V presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with no defects recorded in its last four consecutive MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-11-13 inspection at 40,524 miles. The vehicle has maintained compliance without advisories, indicating consistent maintenance. However, a failed test on 2022-11-10 at identical mileage (36,368 miles) to the subsequent 2022-11-11 pass raises questions about potential data duplication or a retest after minor corrections. No structural, braking, or emission issues were flagged in the valid passes, suggesting no critical mechanical deterioration. The mileage of 40,524 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 3,377 miles annually, a low figure that may indicate infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity. The MOT records show regular testing every 12 months, with gradual mileage increases of 1,000–1,200 miles per year. This pattern suggests the vehicle has not experienced heavy wear on consumables like tyres or brake pads, though low mileage can sometimes mask hidden issues such as suspension component stiffness or fluid degradation. No gaps in testing or rapid mileage spikes are evident, reflecting a predictable usage history. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these can degrade without regular stress. The exhaust system and underbody should be checked for corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has been stored without use. While the MOT history shows no brake-related defects, the absence of tyre tread depth records means tread wear cannot be independently verified. No structural rust or binding calipers were noted in the tests, but a hands-on examination of brake discs and exhaust emissions would confirm the vehicle’s ongoing compliance and safety.
