2016 Honda HR-V 1.5L Petrol · RE66 XJT

The most recent MOT on 25 September 2025 at 42,642 miles recorded a Pass with no defects, indicating the vehicle meets the statutory roadworthiness standards at this date. Across the five consecutive annual tests the outcome has remained unchanged, demonstrating a stable maintenance trend with no emerging faults. Mileage has risen from 20,819 miles in September 2021 to 42,642 miles in September 2025, an average of roughly 4,200 miles per year. This low annual accumulation for a ten‑year‑old model suggests light usage, possibly interspersed with periods of limited running. No abrupt spikes or gaps appear in the record; the mileage increments align closely with the yearly test intervals, reinforcing the impression of consistent, modest exposure. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of wear‑related components that the MOT does not flag. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as low mileage does not guarantee recent replacement. Examine the front and rear suspension – check for cracked or worn bushes, coil‑spring fatigue, and any signs of uneven tyre wear that could hint at alignment issues. Test the braking system by feeling for pedal feel and listening for any binding of calipers or excessive disc wear, especially given the vehicle’s age. Finally, scan the underbody for corrosion, assess exhaust mounts for cracks, and confirm that all lights and electronic aids operate correctly, ensuring no hidden deterioration has escaped the MOT reports.
