2005 Honda HR-V 1.6L Petrol · MT55 ACZ

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status appears stable following the most recent MOT pass on 25 November 2025 at 89,899 miles. The inspection history shows a pattern of failed tests followed immediately by passes, specifically on 03 December 2024 at 82,324 miles and 25 November 2025 at 82,898 miles. This suggests that minor, non-recorded defects are being identified and rectified promptly to secure compliance. The absence of recorded advisories across the last three successful tests indicates that the vehicle is currently meeting the minimum legal standards for structural integrity and mechanical operation. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2005 model, averaging approximately 4,281 miles per year over its lifespan. The data shows a significant period of low usage between December 2023 and December 2024, where the vehicle covered only 882 miles. A more recent increase in usage is evident, with the mileage rising from 82,328 miles in December 2024 to 89,899 miles in November 2025. This recent uptick suggests the vehicle is being used more frequently, which may accelerate the wear on consumable components despite the overall low lifetime mileage. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the underbody to check for significant corrosion, which is a common concern for vehicles of this age. While the MOT records are clean, the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to perished rubber components or seized brake calipers due to infrequent use. You should specifically examine the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and drive shafts. Given the recent increase in mileage, a close inspection of the brake discs for uneven wear and the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking is highly recommended to ensure the vehicle's condition matches the clean MOT history.
