2006 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · RA06 LFT

The 2006 Honda CR-V presents a clean and stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 2025-06-17 at 133,732 miles passed with zero defects recorded, and this flawless result is not an anomaly. Looking back through the previous four annual tests, stretching to 2021, the vehicle has consistently passed without a single advisory or failure. This five-year run of clean certificates strongly suggests a careful owner who kept on top of consumable wear and mechanical health. The mileage accumulation is remarkably steady and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between 2021 and 2025, the recorded miles rose from 122,260 to 133,732, an increase of 11,472 miles over four years. That averages out to roughly 2,868 miles per year during this recent window, which is lower than the vehicle's lifetime average of approximately 6,687 miles per year. This recent dip in annual mileage could indicate lighter local use or a change in ownership circumstances, but the consistent annual testing pattern shows the vehicle remained in regular use rather than sitting stationary for long periods. Despite the clean paperwork, a buyer must still inspect the vehicle thoroughly in person. A 20-year-old SUV with over 133,000 miles will naturally have age-related wear, even if it has passed its MOTs. Check the underside for corrosion on the subframes, sills, and suspension mounting points, as structural rust is a common failure point on older CR-Vs that may not always be visible during a standard MOT. Inspect the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for deterioration, and examine the brake discs, pads, and calipers for uneven wear or binding. While the record shows no emissions failures, verify the exhaust system for corrosion and listen for any blow or rattling that could indicate a developing issue. The clean MOT history is a strong positive indicator, but it does not replace a hands-on inspection by a qualified mechanic.
