2009 Honda Jazz I-Vtec ES 1.3L Petrol · LHZ 8042

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent test conducted in October 2025 at 71,080 miles. This result suggests that the car is currently maintained to a standard that avoids immediate defects. While a failure occurred in October 2024 at 63,212 miles, the vehicle successfully cleared the retest just two weeks later, indicating that the identified issues were minor and promptly rectified rather than representing a pattern of mechanical neglect. At 17 years of age, the recorded mileage of 71,080 miles reflects a low usage pattern, averaging approximately 4,200 miles per annum. The data shows consistent intervals over the last three years, with 6,000 miles driven between the October 2024 and 2025 tests. This low-mileage profile generally reduces wear on the i-VTEC engine and drivetrain components compared to high-mileage counterparts. However, low-use vehicles often suffer from the degradation of rubber-based components and seals due to age and stationary periods, regardless of the distance travelled. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, specifically checking the sills and rear suspension points for corrosion which is common in this era of Honda. Given the low mileage, verify the condition of the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking or bulging, as these perish before they wear out. The history does not flag recurring advisories for brakes or emissions, but a manual check of calipers for pitting and fluid leaks remains necessary to ensure the low usage has not led to internal corrosion within the braking system.
