What owners have to say

Based on 1 review

"Owners love the reliability, high comfort, and value for money. The CR-V Mk3 impresses with generous equipment, practicality, and comfort even after many years of use. However, some note uninspiring performance and below-average efficiency due to its engine and gearbox combination. The car is praised for its ULEZ compliance and useful features like a reversing camera and heated seats. Overall, it’s seen as a practical and dependable choice."

I can’t believe how reliable, well equipped and comfortable it is.

What do you love most about your car?

I can’t believe how reliable, well equipped and comfortable it is at 18 years old.

If you could change one thing about your car, what would it be?

The mix of the 2.0 V-tec, auto gearbox and four-wheel drive means it is glacially slow and pretty uneconomical.

What would you say would be your overall verdict on this car?

If you want a car that is practical, reliable, ULEZ-complaint and well-equipped (it even has a reversing camera and electric heated seats) for less than £2k, I don’t think you can do much better.

Steve's Verdict

Solid, sensible and reliable, but a bit bland. Practicality and comfort were strengths, yet performance and cabin quality fell short of the class leaders.

Who drives a car like this?

AI generated owner profile based on psychographic inference

Often chosen by pragmatic families and calm commuters who prize hassle-free ownership, discreet quality and a cabin that simply works day after day. Risk-averse, value predictability, appreciate honest engineering and understated comfort over flash; loyal to brands that earn trust quietly. School runs, weekend walks, motorway trips to relatives; practical multitaskers balancing careers, kids, pets, and hobbies without drama. Warmly positive about reliability, space and visibility; forgiving of dullness or dated tech if daily life stays easy and affordable.

Did you know?

Pull a handle in the boot and the rear seats flip and fold themselves—genuinely one-handed, letting you keep hold of the buggy or the dog.

Most of the time it runs as front‑wheel drive for economy; when rain, mud or snow arrive, the rear axle quietly joins in without driver drama.

Designers traded the tailgate‑mounted spare for a hatchback-style rear door, making supermarket parking, tight garages and pram loading far easier than older-school SUVs.
