Should you buy a used Honda Cr-v I-ctdi Executive?

The Honda Cr-v I-ctdi Executive has an overall MOT pass rate of 79.6% across 832 real MOT tests — comfortably above the UK average, which puts it among the more reliable models on UK roads.

The most common problems on the Honda Cr-v I-ctdi Executive are exhaust emissions lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (1 recorded failures), headlamp aim too far to the right (1), and side repeater incorrect colour (1). These are the faults most likely to cause an MOT failure on this model, so check for them carefully on any test drive or pre-purchase inspection. Many are wear-and-tear items that can be budgeted for, but a car that's already failing on multiple fronts may signal neglected maintenance.

A typical Honda Cr-v I-ctdi Executive owner drives around 6,651 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres. If it's well below, the vehicle may have been sitting unused — check for perished rubber, corroded discs and stale fluids.

Before committing to a purchase, we recommend running a full vehicle history check on the specific car. This will reveal any outstanding finance, stolen markers, write-off history and mileage discrepancies that the seller may not disclose — and that the MOT data alone can't tell you.
