2018 Honda CR-V 1.6L Diesel · SC67 JJL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a minor lapse in pre-test preparation. On 22 October 2025 at 92,805 miles, the car failed its test due to a misaligned offside front headlamp and a missing central rear seat belt buckle. These issues were rectified immediately to secure a pass on the same day. Excluding this specific failure, the maintenance trend remains remarkably stable, with clean MOT records for the 2024 and 2023 tests showing no mechanical or structural defects. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age. The car has averaged approximately 11,600 miles per year, which aligns with standard expectations for an eight-year-old family SUV. The data shows a steady progression of roughly 9,500 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 11,800 miles between 2024 and October 2025. This consistent interval suggests the vehicle has been subjected to regular operation rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and mechanical components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and wheel geometry. The October 2022 test at 61,260 miles flagged both front tyres as being close to the legal limit and worn on edges, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While the subsequent tests did not report further tyre or structural issues, the buyer should verify the current condition of the front control arms and shock absorbers to ensure the previously uneven wear pattern has not returned as the vehicle nears the 100,000-mile mark.
