2010 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · RO10 AAJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in February 2026 at 94,443 miles resulted in a failure due to worn rear brake pads and a non-functional position lamp. While these were rectified for the pass, the recurring nature of thin brake pads across 2025 and 2026 suggests the owner only addresses consumable components once they reach failure limits. At 94,443 miles, this 16-year-old Honda shows low mileage, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. The usage pattern appears relatively consistent between 2022 and 2024, where the vehicle recorded clean tests with roughly 5,000 miles annually. However, the low mileage often correlates with age-related degradation of rubber and metal, which is evidenced by the corrosion on the exhaust fixings noted in both the 2025 and 2026 tests despite the low mechanical stress placed on the drivetrain. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the exhaust system and braking assembly. The repeated flagging of corroded exhaust fixings indicates that the structural integrity of the mounting system is deteriorating and may soon require a full system replacement. Furthermore, the 2021 failure for inner edge tyre wear on the offside front suggests potential suspension geometry issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for underside corrosion on the sills and brake lines is essential to ensure the low mileage has not masked hidden structural oxidation.
