2011 Honda Cr-Z MOT pass rate: 77.7% (4,187 tests)
Is the 2011 Cr-Z getting worse?
Pass rate of 2011-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 78.1% +8.0 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 79.9% +11.0 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 75.2% +6.8 vs same-age |
The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

What mileage is too high for a 2011 Cr-Z?
The median tested example shows 90,828 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.
