2014 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO64 AEG

The Honda Jazz presents as roadworthy on the strength of its most recent DVSA test conducted on 30 October 2025 at 115,194 miles, a result roughly eight months old relative to the present date of 14 July 2026, where the examiner recorded a pass with no defects or advisories. Maintenance trend across the available history reads stable. The vehicle cleared every annual examination from 28 October 2022 through to the 2025 test without any logged mechanical faults. A curious duplicate entry on 28 October 2022 shows a failure and a pass on the same day at 68,972 miles, both carrying no defect notes, which suggests an administrative re-test or a trivial non-mechanical compliance matter resolved immediately rather than a latent engineering fault. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical use for a twelve-year-old supermini. The record charts 68,972 miles on 28 October 2022, rising to 82,168 by 30 October 2023, then 99,598 on 27 October 2024, and 115,194 on 30 October 2025. That equates to roughly 13,200, 17,400 and 15,600 miles in the respective inter-test periods, a marginally elevated but consistent annual rate around the 9,600 mile average implied by the total. Annual testing cadence is unbroken, leaving no gaps that might conceal undocumented wear. The clean sheets across four successive passes indicate the previous keeper addressed routine servicing without deferring consumable replacements. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the absence of recorded advisories. The 2022 same-day fail-pass anomaly warrants a check of the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm no suppressed rectification work. At 115,194 miles the suspension bushes, coil springs and brake discs will have absorbed considerable cyclic load even if not flagged. Examine subframes and sills for corrosion and verify structural integrity, then assess exhaust emissions under cold start. The Honda's chain-driven layout reduces timing belt risk, yet a scrutinising technician should measure clutch and gearbox backlash given the mileage. The fault-free history implies the former owner prioritised statutory compliance and routine servicing. The unexplained 2022 failure leaves a minor question mark over documentation discipline. Prospective purchasers ought to request service invoices to corroborate the odometer narrative and confirm the vehicle has not endured prolonged standing that could age seals.
