2011 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · LR61 AAE

The 2011 Honda CR-V with 91,554 miles shows a stable roadworthiness trend based on its most recent MOT, conducted on 2026-01-13 at the same mileage. Despite a failure recorded on the same date, no defects were listed, which is unusual and may indicate a technical error or non-compliance issue unrelated to mechanical faults. Previous tests from 2025 and 2024 at lower mileages also showed no defects, suggesting consistent maintenance. However, the lack of detailed failure reasons in the 2026 record raises concerns about transparency and potential unresolved issues. The vehicle’s mileage of 91,554 miles over 15 years equates to an average of 6,104 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. A significant jump from 77,654 miles (2024-01-18) to 85,738 miles (2025-01-17) suggests a year of 8,084 miles, which is slightly above average but not alarming. The subsequent 5,816-mile increase to 91,554 by 2026-01-13 indicates reduced usage, possibly due to seasonal or economic factors. The MOT history lacks recurring defects, but the absence of detailed failure notes in the latest test limits confidence in the vehicle’s condition. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The brakes, including calipers and discs, warrant scrutiny for wear, as even minor issues can escalate. The exhaust system and structural integrity should also be checked, as corrosion or damage may not be flagged in MOT records. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the ambiguity around the 2026 failure and the lack of detailed defect reports necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic.
