2008 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · OV58 LZS

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in January 2026, but it carries several advisories that indicate a lack of preventative maintenance. There is a recurring pattern of neglected wear and tear. The rear brake discs have been recorded as worn, pitted, or scored in both 2025 and 2026, suggesting they have not been replaced despite being flagged. Similarly, the nearside front shock absorber has been misting oil since January 2025 and remains an issue. The overall condition trend appears to be worsening. The most recent test introduced new concerns regarding the front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edges, adding to the existing brake and suspension issues. The mileage is very low for an eighteen year old vehicle. While this implies less general wear on the engine and gearbox, the evidence of pitted brake discs and uneven tyre wear suggests the car may have suffered from long periods of standing or very infrequent use. A buyer should first inspect the rear brake discs for significant corrosion and the front tyres for irregular wear patterns. It is also important to check the nearside front shock absorber for active leaks and assess the extent of the long-term windscreen damage.
