2006 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · PF06 XDX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent MOT on 29 September 2025 at 143,866 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reactive, showing a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes within three days. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed the initial test but passed immediately upon a re-test. This suggests that minor non-conformities are being identified and rectified quickly specifically to meet testing requirements rather than through a proactive preventative maintenance schedule. At approximately twenty years of age, the recorded mileage of 143,866 miles represents an annual average of roughly 7,200 miles. This is consistent with typical UK usage for an SUV. The data shows steady mileage accumulation, with 6,379 miles covered between September 2023 and 2024, and another 7,156 miles covered between September 2024 and 2025. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and structural integrity, as older Honda CR-Vs are prone to corrosion in the rear sills and suspension mounting points. While the MOT record shows no recorded defects, the recurring one-day failures indicate that minor items such as bulbs, wiper blades, or slight leaks might be overlooked until they trigger a failure. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear, as these components often fatigue at this mileage bracket. Given the clean history of passes, the focus should remain on verifying the specific reasons for the failures in 2024 and 2025 to ensure those mechanical issues were properly addressed rather than temporarily masked.
