2010 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · RV60 PXF

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive repairs. The most recent MOT test in November 2025 at 159,448 miles followed an immediate failure one mile prior due to suspension and lighting issues. While the vehicle passed the re-test, the presence of severely deteriorated dust covers on the front ball joints and track rod ends indicates a neglect of rubber components. This suggests that parts are only addressed once they reach a point of failure rather than during scheduled service intervals. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between November 2022 at 137,435 miles and November 2025 at 159,448 miles, the car covered 22,013 miles, showing a steady usage profile. There are no significant gaps suggesting long periods of standing, but the total mileage of nearly 160,000 miles places considerable stress on the drivetrain and chassis components regardless of the consistent usage rate. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension assembly, as the record shows a recurring history with lower arm bushes and ball joints dating back to 2022. The 2025 failure regarding track rod end dust covers suggests the steering linkage may be nearing the end of its functional life and require thorough checking. Additionally, the 2023 advisory regarding pitted and scored front brake discs and the 2024 note on perishing tyres indicate that consumable components are suffering from age-related degradation. A physical check for structural corrosion on the undercarriage is essential, as the record does not explicitly detail the integrity of the frame at this high mileage.
