2008 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · OV08 WVW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having maintained a clean record through its recent inspections. The most recent test on 22 March 2025 at 172,330 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just four days prior at 172,326 miles. While the record lacks no specific failure details—likely suggesting an administrative error or a minor issue quickly rectified—the subsequent consistent clean pass indicates the vehicle currently meets the minimum safety standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. Between March 2023 and March 2025, the car covered 25,341 miles, representing a steady usage rate of roughly 12,600 miles annually during that period. This slight increase over the long-term average remains within typical parameters for domestic use. The lack of significant mileage gaps suggests the vehicle is used regularly rather than left standing for long periods, which often helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and brake seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas common to high-mileage Honda CR-Vs of this era. Although the MOT record shows no current advisories, the age necessitates a close check for corrosion on the subframe and rear suspension mounting points where structural integrity is prone to compromise. Given the 172,330-mile reading, verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or fatigue. Additionally, inspect the brake discs for deep pitting or uneven wear, as the MOT history does not account for the remaining thickness of these consumable components.
