2010 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · A20 EBM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean pass on August 4 2026, at 36,208 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the owner has consistently addressed specific failures identified in previous years. While the car failed its test in August 2025 due to a faulty rear fog lamp and corrosion on both front suspension arms, these issues were rectified before the most recent inspection, indicating a proactive approach to repairs when safety faults are flagged. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,263 miles per year. This low usage is evident across the timeline, for example, the car covered only 101 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. However, such minimal travel often leads to age-related degradation rather than mechanical wear. The record shows a recurring issue with perishing and cracking tyres dating back to 2019, which suggests the vehicle likely sits for long periods, allowing rubber components to dry and fail. A physical inspection should focus heavily on the front suspension components, as corrosion on the suspension arms was noted consistently between 2024 and 2025. Although the car passed without defects recently, one must verify that this corrosion has not progressed into a structural weakness. The buyer should also inspect the brake system thoroughly; the history shows pitted front discs in 2017 and corroded brake hose ferrules in 2022. Given the low mileage, checking for seized brake calipers and perished rubber tyre sidewalls is vital, as the record confirms a long history of age-related material failure.
