HONDA JAZZ2004 · 1.3L Petrol

The 2004 Honda Jazz shows a roadworthy status as of the most recent test, passing without defect on 13 August 2021 at 139,917 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable across the recorded history, with no advisories or mechanical faults logged in any test. The only blemish is a pair of administrative fails on 10 August 2021 and 10 August 2020, both at the existing mileage and with no defects recorded, suggesting paperwork or presentation issues rather than mechanical condition. Mileage accumulation is modest for a 22-year-old vehicle. The records show 129,443 miles in August 2019, rising to 132,687 by August 2020 and 139,917 by August 2021, an average of roughly 5,200 miles per year. The gap between the 2021 pass and today leaves nearly five years untested, so current wear on consumables and structure cannot be confirmed from this data. The clean sheet across all logged tests indicates light use and no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns at those points. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection given the lapse since the last MOT. The absence of advisories in 2021 does not cover the intervening period, during which coil springs, binding calipers, and subframe corrosion may have developed on a car of this age. The repeated no-defect fails hint the previous owner treated testing casually, so verify the vehicle has not stood unused with degraded tyres or seized brakes. Prior to purchase, check structural integrity at sill and suspension mounting points, confirm brake operation is free of binding, and assess tyre condition dated after 2021. The sparse but clean record offers no evidence of serious mechanical risk, yet the five-year silence demands physical verification of wear items.
