FAQs

Is a 2010 Honda Cr-Z reliable?

2010-registered examples passed 77.2% of their MOT tests (3,814 tests, 2023–2025), +9.9 points versus all UK cars registered in the same year. At roughly 16 years old with a median 96,660 miles, condition now varies car by car — always check the individual MOT history.

What mileage is too high for a 2010 Cr-Z?

The median tested example shows 96,660 miles. Anything far beyond that isn't automatically bad — a motorway-mile car with consistent service records often beats a low-mileage school-run car — but price accordingly and scrutinise the mileage trail for gaps or drops.
