2008 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · RV58 WGP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean pass in September 2025 at 188,069 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The car failed a test just one day prior to its recent pass due to structural corrosion on the rear sill and lighting failures. While these issues were rectified to secure the pass, the presence of significant corrosion indicates that the vehicle is reaching a stage where structural integrity becomes a primary concern. The recorded mileage of 188,069 miles over 18 years represents an average annual of approximately 10,448 miles per annum. This aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent annual travel, with roughly 7,000 miles covered between the September 2024 and 2025 tests, and nearly 9,000 miles in the preceding year. This steady usage suggests the car is driven regularly, which generally prevents premature wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear nearside suspension mounting area and the sill. The 2025 failure for excessive corrosion significantly reducing structural strength is a serious matter that requires close monitoring to ensure the rust has not spread. You should also verify the front brake discs, which were already noted as worn in 2024. Given the previous history of a damaged track rod end dust cover in 2023, a comprehensive check of all rubber suspension boots for further cracking or tearing is necessary to ensure these components have been properly replaced or maintained.
