2002 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · LT02 AEP

The 2002 Honda CR-V shows a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent MOT test on 24 February 2025 at 183,928 miles, where the DVSA examiner issued a pass with no defects recorded. From the 25 January 2021 examination at 166,735 miles through to that 2025 test, the vehicle achieved five consecutive passes, the tester noting no mechanical or structural concerns in the defect column. This unbroken clean record demonstrates a maintained rather than deteriorating condition over the past four years. Mileage advanced modestly across the recorded period. The odometer read 170,699 miles on 2 February 2022, 175,532 miles on 17 February 2023, 179,539 miles on 8 February 2024, and 183,928 miles on 24 February 2025. Annual distance covered between tests averaged near 4,300 miles, which falls below the circa 7,664 miles per year implied by the vehicle's age. Such restrained recent use coupled with yearly testing suggests the previous owners lightly drove the car and kept statutory checks current. No recurring faults appear in the history, so the buyer faces no flagged mechanical trends. A 24-year-old Honda with 183,928 miles still requires in-person scrutiny of age-sensitive items that a pass result does not detail. The official record shows no corrosion or structural defects, yet sill panels, subframes, and suspension mounting points should be inspected for rust pitting. Front lower arm bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant physical measurement for fatigue and wear. The consistent absence of defect entries implies previous keepers addressed consumable items like tyres and wiper blades before each test, but a pre-purchase road test should confirm exhaust emissions compliance and check for binding calipers not captured by annual scrutiny.
