2019 Honda HR-V 1.5L Petrol · SV69 UFW

The Honda HR-V presents a solid and improving maintenance picture, culminating in a fully clean MOT pass on 9 April 2026 at 68,507 miles with zero defects recorded. That is a meaningful shift from the pattern seen in 2025, when the car failed its first attempt on 12 April 2025 at 55,486 miles due to four tyre defects, including both front tyres below the 1.6mm legal limit and both rear tyres showing cracking or perishing. The same rear tyre advisories carried over into the retest pass later that day, suggesting the front tyres were replaced but the originals were left on the rear axle. The fact that no tyre or braking defects appeared in the 2026 test indicates the current tyres are in good condition and no new wear items have surfaced. The mileage progression is consistent and broadly typical for a seven-year-old vehicle. From 38,136 miles at the May 2023 test to 45,001 miles in April 2024, the car covered roughly 6,865 miles in eleven months. The step from 45,001 miles to 55,486 miles over the following year represents around 10,485 miles, and the most recent year from April 2025 to April 2026 shows approximately 13,021 miles covered. That is a gradual increase in annual usage, not a sudden spike, and the overall average of roughly 9,787 miles per year sits within normal parameters for a petrol crossover of this age. No suspicious gaps or abrupt drops appear in the odometer record. The 2024 test at 45,001 miles flagged worn and lipped front and rear brake discs as advisories, which is expected wear at that stage of the car's life. By the 2026 test at 68,507 miles, no brake defects were recorded, implying the discs and pads have been replaced at some point in the intervening two years. A buyer should still inspect the current brake disc thickness, pad condition, and caliper operation in person, as well as checking for any uneven wear or binding that might not yet meet the MOT threshold. The 2025 tyre failure also warrants a close visual inspection of the sidewalls on all four tyres, particularly the rears, and confirmation that the date codes align with a post-April 2025 replacement. Beyond the flagged items, a thorough underbody check for corrosion, especially around suspension mounting points and the exhaust system, would be prudent given the car has now passed 68,000 miles.
