2009 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · PE59 LFT

The vehicle presents a stable and highly positive maintenance profile, with the most recent MOT on 23 June 2026 at 141,524 miles showing a clean pass with no defects. This follows a consistent three-year streak of clean passes dating back to June 2023. While the vehicle has experienced minor failures in the past, these related to simple electrical issues or minor wear items rather than systemic mechanical failure or structural degradation. The absence of advisories in the last three consecutive tests suggests the vehicle is currently in a well-maintained state. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year over its seventeen-year lifespan. The record shows steady progression, such as the 2,400-mile increase between June 2024 and June 2025, and a 1,600-mile increase between June 2025 and June 2026. This predictable usage pattern indicates the car has likely been used for regular, moderate commuting rather than being left to sit for long periods or subjected to heavy commercial use. A buyer should note that between 2020 and 2022, the tester repeatedly flagged that under trays and covers were obscuring the view of certain components. While the vehicle passed these tests, this practice can occasionally mask early-stage corrosion or fluid leaks on the underside. Although the recent clean records suggest no immediate issues, a physical inspection of the chassis and underbody for surface rust or weeping seals remains a prudent step for a vehicle of this age. The historical failures regarding anti-roll bar linkage dust covers and various lamp issues indicate that minor consumable and electrical components have been addressed when flagged. No recurring issues with braking systems, suspension geometry, or exhaust emissions appear in the recent data. Given the clean recent history, the primary focus during a physical inspection should remain on verifying the condition of the underbody components that were previously obscured and checking the general integrity of the suspension bushings and steering linkages.
