Our Verdict
This is a sensible used buy for a budget-conscious buyer who wants a dependable petrol SUV. The MOT history shows only minor corrosion advisories and no failures over the last five years.
Given the 2022 MOT noted corrosion on both front coil springs (5.3.1 (b) (i)), confirm with the seller whether these were replaced or are still original, as aged springs can affect ride comfort and handling. Request the full service history to verify routine maintenance such as timing belt and fluid changes, which are not shown in the MOT data but matter on a 19-year-old vehicle.
As a 2006 2.0-litre petrol SUV, the CR-V falls into a higher road tax band than modern small cars and insurance will reflect its size and age. Real-world fuel economy is typically around 30-35 mpg, so fuel is the largest running cost for average mileage.
Inspect the front suspension closely, as the 2022 MOT flagged corroded nearside and offside front coil springs; check for replacement receipts or signs of rust now. Examine the bodywork and underbody for corrosion given the vehicle's 19 years of age, even though recent MOTs recorded no defects.
The 2006 Honda CR-V (KR56ACU) is a grey 2.0-litre petrol example first registered in November 2006 with 91,794 miles recorded at its most recent MOT in August 2025. Its test history is strong, with passes every year from 2021 to 2025 and only corroded front coil springs noted as advisories in 2022. With no aggregate model reliability data available, the individual history is the best indicator and it points to a well-kept vehicle.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Honda CR-V, so this assessment relies solely on the individual vehicle's test history provided.
