2006 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · RE56 WOV

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in November 2025 test at 161,137 miles. While the history shows a recurring pattern of re-tests following failures, the absence of recorded defects in the most recent MOT result indicates that the owner is actively addressing and resolving issues identified by the tester. The lack of persistent major mechanical or structural failures across the last three years suggests the vehicle is maintained to a functional standard despite its age. At 161,137 miles over twenty years, the CR-V averages approximately 8,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this era. The data shows a consistent usage pattern, with roughly 7,000 miles covered between April 2023 and September 2024, and another 6,000 miles recorded between September 2024 and November 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the car does not sit for long periods, which helps to prevent the degradation of rubber seals and seizing of brake components. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the areas that likely caused the failures in 2024 and 2025, although no specific defects were listed in the record. These failures likely involved common consumable items such as light bulbs, tyre tread, or minor emissions deviations. Given the age and mileage, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe is essential, as these models are prone to rust over time. Additionally, inspect the suspension arm bushes for wear and check the brake calipers for binding, as the consistent mileage puts a steady demand on the vehicle's long-term components.
