2013 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · NL13 AEE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT pass on 5 February 2026 at 180,832 miles. While the record shows two previous failures, these appear to be administrative or minor technical issues rather than indicators of systemic mechanical decline. The most recent test shows no defects, suggesting that the issues identified in previous years have been successfully addressed and the vehicle is currently maintaining a clean compliance record. The mileage accumulation is significant, averaging approximately 13,910 miles per year over its thirteen-year lifespan. This high-mileage usage is consistent across the recorded history, showing a steady progression from 149,939 miles in December 2023 to 165,834 miles in December 2024, and finally reaching 180,832 miles in February 2026. This consistent usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly rather than sitting idle, which typically results in more predictable wear on engine components and seals compared to vehicles that undergo long periods of standing. A buyer should focus on the mechanical components most affected by high-mileage usage. Given the 180,832 miles on the odometer, a thorough inspection of the suspension system is necessary, specifically checking for worn coil springs, perished bushes, and leaking shock absorbers. The previous failures in December 2023 and December 2024, despite resulting in passes shortly after, warrant a close look at the braking system for any signs of binding calipers or unevenly worn discs. The high annual mileage also necessitates a careful check of the drivetrain and underbody. Inspect the vehicle for signs of structural corrosion on the chassis and exhaust system, as high-use vehicles are often exposed to more road salt and moisture. While the MOT record is currently clean, the sheer mileage means the buyer should verify that all major service intervals, including timing belt or chain inspections and fluid changes, have been documented by the owner to complement this electronic record.
