2019 Honda HR-V 1.5L Petrol · PO69 VMK

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-12 recorded a pass with no defects, but a prior test on 2025-08-11 showed a failure with no recorded defects. This inconsistency raises questions about the accuracy of the data, though the lack of defects in the latest test suggests the vehicle is currently roadworthy. The historical trend shows no recurring mechanical issues, with all prior tests from 2022 to 2024 also passing without recorded faults. The absence of structural or safety-related advisories indicates a stable maintenance record, though the abrupt failure in 2025-08-11 warrants further investigation. The vehicle’s mileage of 13,698 miles at 7 years old equates to roughly 1,957 miles per year, significantly lower than average. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, and fluid systems. The MOT history shows no significant gaps between tests, with annual checks from 2022 to 2025, but the static mileage between the 2025 tests—13,698 miles on both 2025-08-11 and 2025-08-12—raises concerns about data accuracy. The lack of defects in the most recent test implies no immediate risks, but the low mileage pattern may mask hidden issues requiring closer inspection. A buyer should prioritise checking for corrosion in underbody components, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to rust if left stationary. Suspension components, including coil springs and bushings, should be examined for stiffness or wear, while brake discs and calipers may require testing for uneven wear or binding. The absence of recorded defects in the MOT history does not eliminate the need for a hands-on inspection, particularly given the unusual data entry for the 2025 tests. Confirming the vehicle’s service history and verifying the accuracy of the MOT records would provide further clarity on its mechanical condition.
