2009 Honda CR-V 2.2L Diesel · SW09 CPW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 11 March 2024 at 177,863 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This streak suggests that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoids immediate mechanical failures or safety-related degradations during the DVSA testing process. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent with typical usage for a vehicle this age, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per annum. Between the February 2020 test at 141,342 miles and the March 2024 test at 177,863 miles, the car covered 36,521 miles. This steady rate of use indicates regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which often leads to perished seals or seized brake components. The lack of significant spikes in mileage between annual tests supports a predictable wear pattern for the drivetrain. Despite the clean MOT record, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of components susceptible to wear and tear on the CR-V. A buyer should examine the suspension system for worn bushes and fatigued coil springs, as the 177,000-mile mark puts significant stress on the chassis. Checking for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is also vital, as MOT tests only flag structural rust once it becomes a failure point. Additionally, verifying the brakes for binding calipers or thin discs will ensure the lack of recorded advisories reflects the actual mechanical condition.
