Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2015 Honda Cr V Sr I Dtec 4x2?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

This 2015 CR-V diesel is a genuine concern on the MOT front—it's failing first time at 62.8%, which is a full 17 percentage points below the UK average of 80%. The good news is there are no dangerous defects recorded across this cohort, but the below-average pass rate signals recurring mechanical issues that buyers should take seriously.

At 82,510 miles on average, these cars are sitting right where you'd expect for a nine-year-old model, yet they're still racking up failures despite modest mileage. The near-zero advisories suggest problems aren't being caught early; instead, they're developing into outright failures by test time. Have a trusted independent diesel specialist inspect any CR-V you're considering—don't rely on the MOT history alone.
