Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 133,000 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
Most 2016 HR‑Vs in Europe used the 1.6 i‑DTEC diesel with a manual gearbox — a torquey, economical unit that likes sustained motorway runs. Because it’s a diesel, watch for DPF and EGR-related issues if the car has mostly been used for short urban trips; the cabin is practical with Honda’s flexible rear seat layout but many HR‑Vs are front‑wheel drive only (not a serious off‑roader).
- DPF operation: watch for warning lights, frequent forced regenerations, or strong soot/black smoke which indicate a blocked DPF.
- EGR/intake carbon: rough idling, hesitation or loss of midrange torque can point to EGR or intake clogging.
- Manual clutch and gearbox: check for slipping, grabbing, a high bite point and smooth gear selection under load.
- Turbo health and oil leaks: listen for unusual whine, check for boost loss and inspect for oil seepage around turbo/intercooler pipes.
- Rear subframe/suspension bushes and general underbody: check for knocks, worn bushes and any corrosion around subframe mounts given the vehicle age.
