2017 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · KY17 DOX

The 2017 Honda CR-V presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean pass recorded at the June 2025 test, showing 51,643 miles and no defects noted. The maintenance trend across the five-year MOT span is consistent and uneventful, with every annual examination clearing without advisories or mechanical faults. A single anomaly appears in May 2024 where the vehicle failed and passed on the same day at 39,330 miles, yet the tester logged no defects on either certificate, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a genuine fault. Annual mileage averages 5,738 across the vehicle's nine-year life, which is low for a CR-V of this age. The records show steady accumulation: 21,807 miles in May 2022, 30,120 in June 2023, 39,330 in May 2024, and 51,643 by June 2025. That equates to roughly 8,000 to 12,000 miles added each year with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. Low overall use combined with clean test outcomes suggests the previous keeper carried out basic servicing and avoided harsh duty cycles, though standing periods common to low-mileage cars can still hide perished rubber components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers given the car's age and the possibility of intermittent corrosion beneath sills or subframes not visible during a no-defect MOT. The same-day fail and pass in May 2024 warrants a check of the DVSA refusal reason to confirm no suppressed advisory existed on the braking or exhaust system. Tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition should be verified as consumables unrelated to the recorded tests. The absence of recurring advisories points to a structurally sound vehicle, but a pre-purchase ramp check remains prudent on any nine-year-old SUV before completion.
