2005 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · MT55 PHN

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 11 November 2025 at 150,070 miles. This record indicates a highly stable maintenance trend, as the car has passed its last three consecutive inspections without a single recorded defect or advisory. The failed test on 9 November 2024 at 144,518 miles appears to be a procedural anomaly or a minor administrative error, given that the vehicle passed a full inspection only two days later with no recorded repairs. Accumulated mileage stands at 150,070 over a twenty-one-year lifespan, averaging approximately 7,146 miles annually. This usage pattern is consistent and suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly rather than left standing for extended periods, which often leads to seized components or perished rubber seals. The steady accumulation of roughly 5,000 to 11,000 miles between annual tests since 2022 points to a vehicle that has remained in active, predictable service. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, a physical inspection should focus on areas typically prone to degradation in a vehicle of this age that may not be captured by a standard test. You should prioritize checking the underside for structural corrosion, particularly around the rear subframe mounts and sills, as these are common weak points for this generation of Honda CR-V. Inspect the suspension bushes and ball joints for play, as these components often wear gradually without triggering an immediate test failure. Confirm the condition of the brake discs and pads, and verify that the all-wheel-drive system engages smoothly without unusual noises or vibrations during a test drive.
