2013 Honda CR-Z 1.5L Hybrid electric · SW63 AAY

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile with no recorded failures or advisories across the entire MOT history. The most recent test on 2 April 2026 at 36,455 miles returned a clean pass with no defects flagged. This indicates a sustained period of compliance and suggests that the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy condition without recurring issues regarding structural integrity or mechanical systems. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,804 miles per year. A significant period of low usage is evident between the October 2022 test at 18,794 miles and the April 2024 test at 19,060 miles, where the car covered only 272 miles in roughly 18 months. While this low usage suggests minimal wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushes, such long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to perished rubber seals or seized brake calipers. The more recent increase in usage between 2024 and 2026 shows a return to regular, albeit light, driving. Because the MOT record is entirely devoid of advisories, there is no evidence of historical issues with brake discs, tyre tread, or exhaust emissions. However, the low annual mileage means the vehicle has not been subjected to the regular mechanical cycling that prevents fluid degradation or battery discharge. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the hybrid battery system and the age of the tyres, as rubber components often age due to time rather than distance. Checking for any signs of corrosion on the underbody and ensuring all suspension components are free from perished bushings remains a prudent step for a vehicle with this specific usage pattern.
