2006 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · AF56 UJX

The Honda Jazz presents a broadly roadworthy status as of the most recent test on 15 November 2022, where it passed at 113,463 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, with the only blemish being a failure on 1 November 2022 at 113,311 miles that listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or unrecorded minor issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the September 2021 test at 101,430 miles passed cleanly. No worsening pattern emerges across the three-year record. The odometer shows 113,463 miles against a 2006 build date, equating to roughly 5,673 miles per year. This is low for a twenty-year-old vehicle. The jump from 101,430 miles in September 2021 to 113,311 miles by November 2022 indicates about 11,900 miles in fourteen months, a brief period of above-average use. The record then stalls at 113,463 miles, with no tests logged since late 2022; that leaves the vehicle untested for over three and a half years relative to today's date of 8 July 2026. Sparse entries and a clean defect sheet imply basic upkeep was adequate, though the lapse means current condition is unverified. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for age-related degradation, given the long standing period since the last MOT. The tester flagged no corrosion or structural integrity concerns in the history, but a 2006 chassis may harbour hidden rust beneath sills and subframes after years outdoors. Verify the exhaust emissions and binding calipers during a road trial. Confirm why the November 2022 failure occurred with no defects listed, as DVSA systems occasionally omit minor advisory items. The previous owner's low annual mileage suggests light duty, yet the three-year test gap demands a fresh MOT before purchase to expose any dormant mechanical risks.
