2004 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · AJ04 AET

The 2004 Honda Jazz presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no recorded defects across its three most recent MOT tests. The latest examination on 14 February 2024 at 114,196 miles returned a pass with no advisories, confirming the vehicle held a clean test status as of that date, roughly seventeen months before the current review date. Annual mileage sits well below typical expectations for a twenty-two year old car. The record shows 106,884 miles in February 2022, rising to 110,191 miles in February 2023 and 114,196 miles in February 2024. That equates to under 4,200 miles per year across the logged period, indicating light use or extended standing rather than high-load driving. The three consecutive passes with no defects suggest the previous keeper maintained basic statutory compliance, though the sparse history offers limited insight into component-level care between tests. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and low usage pattern, as prolonged standing accelerates perishable rubber degradation and surface corrosion unseen in a clean MOT. The absence of structural or mechanical advisories in the official record provides reassurance, but DVSA tests do not strip components or measure hidden rust behind sills and subframes. Given the most recent test predates today by over a year, confirm the car has not since accumulated significant mileage or suffered lay-up damage. Verify tyre sidewall condition and brake caliper freedom, since light-use vehicles often develop sticking slides and flat-spotted rubber that a pass certificate will not reveal.
