HONDA CR-V (2001-07) 5DR SUV 2.2 CTDI 140 SPORT is a five-door SUV with a higher driving position and useful cabin space. It belongs to the compact SUV class that became popular in Britain, offering a versatile alternative to a conventional family hatchback for daily use and trips away, and weekends with ease. mycarcheck.com records 1,932 checks covering 1,089 different VINs, a substantial sample for this older model. Its average private-sale valuation is £1,800, with average recorded mileage of 146,000 and annual use around 7,000 miles. Cars checked had about four previous keepers on average, so condition and history deserve a careful check. The 2.2-litre diesel suits drivers covering regular distances and needing space for children, luggage or outdoor gear; it is less compelling for occasional short town trips. Sport trim adds an appealing finish, while the CR-V is known for sensible practicality and easygoing manners, competing with Toyota RAV4 and Nissan X-Trail.
