2014 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · RF14 WEW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the MOT history reveals a consistent trend of neglected basic maintenance. While the car passed its most recent test on 19 June 2025 at 91,067 miles, it failed exactly one day prior for multiple tyre failures. The tester flagged four tyres with defects, including tread depths below legal limits and a structural cut reaching the cords on the offside rear. This indicates that the previous owner only addressed safety equipment when forced by a failure rather than performing proactive preventative care. The mileage pattern is consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 67,589 miles in July 2022 to 91,067 miles in June 2025, representing an increase of roughly 7,800 miles per annum. This relatively low annual mileage suggests light use, but the long intervals between tests often lead to the degradation of rubber components, as evidenced by the recurring perishing and uneven wear noted across several years tests. A buyer must physically inspect the suspension and alignment geometry, as the repeated reports of tyres worn on the inner edges and edges between 2024 and 2025 suggest persistent misalignment or worn suspension bushes and ball joints. The history of cracking and perishing tyres also implies the vehicle may have sat for extended periods, which can accelerate dry rot. Given the lack of attention to consumables, a thorough check of the brake fluid condition and belt condition is essential, as these areas were not detailed in the MOT advisories.
