2006 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · YF06 AAE

The most recent MOT test on 5 February 2024 at 144,650 miles resulted in a failure with no defects recorded, leaving the vehicle's current roadworthiness unconfirmed by a passing certificate. Prior to that, the test history shows a repeating pattern of same-day failures followed by passes in February 2023 at 133,705 and 133,706 miles, and January 2022 at 125,853 miles, all with no defects logged. This suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than a clear mechanical decline, so the maintenance trend appears stable but the lack of a clean recent pass warrants caution. The recorded mileage of 144,650 over roughly twenty years equates to about 7,232 miles per year, which is typical for a car of this age and points to steady, moderate use rather than harsh high-mileage driving or long dormant periods. Between the January 2022 test at 125,853 miles and the February 2023 test at 133,706 miles the car covered 7,853 miles, then added 10,944 miles by February 2024. The data is sparse with no advisories or defects listed, so we cannot chart wear on consumables or major assemblies from the record alone. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and mileage, as these items commonly degrade without triggering MOT advisories in a minimal-records history. The repeated no-defect failures mean the DVSA ledger offers no signal on structural corrosion or exhaust emissions condition, so a competent mechanic must check the subframes and underbody for rust and verify the catalytic converter and lambda readings on a road test. Given the 2024 failure left the Jazz without a valid pass for over two years relative to today's date, confirm whether a subsequent test was completed privately and scrutinise the V5C and any service invoices before purchase. The absence of recorded faults is not evidence of fault-free condition on a 2006 vehicle at this mileage.
