About the Honda Cr-V
The Honda CR-V remains a cornerstone of the British family SUV market, renowned for its legendary reliability and cavernous interior. Now in its sixth generation, it continues to offer a refined driving experience, particularly for those prioritising safety and practical cabin layouts over sporty dynamics.
Why Buy a Used Honda CR-V?
- Vast internal space with a 'magic seat' philosophy that provides class-leading legroom and a flat loading bay.
- Exceptional reliability records and strong resale values via the UK used market.
- High standard safety specification ensuring low insurance groups and peace of mind for families.
- Hybrid powertrains in newer models offer excellent fuel efficiency and full ULEZ compliance for city driving.
Typical Price Range
All prices are approximate.
- 2012–2018 (Mk4): £6,500 – £15,000 — The 1.6 i-DTEC diesel is a motorway favourite; ensure the V5C confirms Euro 6 status for later models to avoid ULEZ charges.
- 2018–2023 (Mk5): £16,500 – £29,000 — Introduced the self-charging i-MMD hybrid system; look for 'SR' or 'EX' trims for leather and panoramic roofs.
- 2023–Present (Mk6): £34,000 – £48,000 — The latest 'e:HEV' and 'e:PHEV' models offer premium tech and significantly improved electric-only ranges.
Common Issues to Check
- Oil Dilution: Some early 1.5-litre VTEC turbo petrol engines suffered from fuel leaking into the oil; check service history for Honda's software fixes.
- Infotainment Glitches: The Honda Connect system in Mk5 models can be prone to lagging or freezing; ensure firmware is updated via the DVLA-registered dealer network.
- DPF Clogging: On older i-DTEC diesels used solely for short school runs, the Diesel Particulate Filter can block. Look for evidence of regular 'regeneration' drives.
- Battery Drainage: Some owners report the 12V starter battery on hybrid models can deplete if the vehicle is left stationary for more than two weeks.
Running Costs
- Fuel Economy: 42-53mpg for Hybrids; 35-40mpg for Petrol; 45-55mpg for older Diesel units.
- Insurance Group: Groups 22 to 34, making it competitive against the Toyota RAV4 and VW Tiguan.
- Servicing: Fixed-price servicing is common at Honda UK dealers, typically ranging from £200 to £450 depending on the mileage interval (A or B service).
Which Variant Should I Choose?
- S / SE: Budget-conscious buyers who want the sheer size of a CR-V without the premium price tag of luxury gadgets.
- SR: The 'sweet spot' for UK families, adding front and rear parking sensors, heated seats, and ambient lighting.
- EX: Luxury seekers; this top-tier trim includes a head-up display, hands-free power tailgate, and a panoramic glass roof.
- E:PHEV Advance Tech: Company car drivers looking to benefit from low Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) tax rates thanks to its plug-in hybrid efficiency.
