2004 Honda CR-V 2.0L Petrol · SY54 SZZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the clean result of its most recent inspection. The latest MOT test conducted in January 2024 at 170,716 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and safety systems were meeting legal standards at that time. While a brief failure occurred in November 2022, the immediate rectification and subsequent clean passes suggest an owner who addressed faults promptly. The maintenance trend remains consistent over the last three years. The mileage pattern reflects a steady usage of approximately 7,700 miles per year, which is typical for a non-commercial vehicle of this age. Between November 2021 and November 2022, the car covered 8,477 miles, while it added another 7,587 miles between the November 2022 and January 2024 tests. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stationary neglect which often leads to perished seals and brake corrosion. The total mileage of over 170,000 is significant despite the low annual accumulation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, particularly, the rear subframe and sills, where Honda vehicles of this era are prone to corrosion. Given the age and mileage, the suspension bushes and coil springs should also be checked for signs of fatigue or perished rubber. Although the record shows no recent advisories for brakes, a manual check of the caliper movement for binding and the condition of the brake discs is necessary to ensure no significant wear has developed since the 2024 test.
