2014 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · LB63 EXE

The vehicle presents a generally stable maintenance profile with a clean history for much of its life. The most recent test on 26 November 2025 at 69,414 miles indicates a slight shift toward minor wear-and-tear issues after several years of defect-free inspections. While the vehicle passed, the tester flagged a non-obligatory stop lamp failure, a damaged offside front track rod end ball joint dust cover, and a nearside rear tyre showing signs of cracking or perishing. These findings suggest that while the vehicle has been well-maintained, the onset of age-related degradation in rubber components and minor electrical items is beginning to surface. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2014 model, averaging approximately 5,784 miles per year. The records show steady, incremental usage, such as the jump from 44,412 miles in October 2022 to 52,226 miles in November 2023, and subsequently to 60,523 miles in November 2024. This consistent, low-intensity driving pattern likely explains the lack of major mechanical failures or structural corrosion noted in previous years. However, the presence of perishing rubber on the tyre in the 2025 test is a common side effect of vehicles that spend significant time stationary or are driven infrequently. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and steering components to ensure the track rod end issue has been fully rectified and that no further deterioration exists in the bushes or joints. Given the recent advisory regarding the tyre, a thorough check of all perimeter rubber seals and tyre sidewalls is necessary to identify further age-related cracking. Although the brake and exhaust systems have not been flagged in recent years, the recent stop lamp issue warrants a quick check of the rear lighting cluster and bulb integrity to ensure all electrical connections remain secure.
