2020 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · AE69 OAH

The vehicle holds a valid MOT certificate following the January 2026 inspection at 18,618 miles, yet the maintenance trend regarding rubber components is clearly worsening. While the tester passed the car, the record flags a distinct escalation in tyre defects. In January 2025, the nearside and offside front tyres showed signs of slight cracking or perishing. By the most recent test in January 2026, this degradation had spread to the rear wheels as well, affecting all four tyres. Usage figures remain exceptionally low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,100 miles annually. The odometer progression between April 2023 at 12,240 miles and January 2026 at 18,618 miles shows consistent, light use rather than sudden high mileage accumulation. This limited driving pattern correlates directly with the tyre condition, as rubber compounds deteriorate over time regardless of tread depth. The vehicle has likely spent significant periods stationary, which accelerates perishing. A prospective buyer must prioritise a physical examination of the tyres immediately. The MOT advisories confirm structural degradation of the rubber on all four wheels, which likely necessitates replacement rather than simple repairs. Beyond the wheels, the mechanical history is clean with no reported suspension, braking, or corrosion issues. Given the car's low usage and age, checking for fluid degradation or seized components due to inactivity is prudent, even if the official record remains clear of structural defects.
