Moderate sample. 312 vehicles on record. Figures are indicative — the specific vehicle's history matters more than these averages.

This 2006 CR-V diesel has a first-time pass rate of 63%, well below the UK average of 80%, which means you're looking at a vehicle that typically needs work before it clears its MOT. The good news is that dangerous defects are absent from this cohort's history, so failures tend to be fixable rather than structural nightmares.

At nearly 152,000 miles on average, these cars are well-used but the mileage is reasonable for an 18-year-old SUV, and the average of 1.06 failures per test suggests consistent but manageable maintenance needs rather than catastrophic decline. Before buying, budget for at least one round of repairs to pass the MOT, and get a pre-purchase inspection focused on the diesel engine and suspension components that typically fail on these models.

The 2006 Honda Cr V I Ctdi Sport passes its MOT first time at roughly the UK average rate (80.4%) — solid but worth checking this vehicle's history carefully.
