2010 Honda Jazz 1.2L Petrol · AV60 XCP

Rubber component degradation and lighting deterioration define the recent roadworthiness record of this vehicle. While it achieved a pass on 2026-07-04, this followed a failure a day prior due to an incorrectly aimed offside front headlamp. The record shows a recurring theme of deteriorating headlight lenses and perished tyres, suggesting a trend where rubber consumables and external lighting components are reaching the end of their functional life. With 121,599 miles recorded over sixteen years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 7,600 miles per annum, which is typical for its age. This level of usage indicates a steady accumulation of wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. Given the mileage, the mechanical focus shifts toward the natural wear of high-cycle parts such as engine mounts, suspension bushes, and brake system components. Immediate attention is required for the tyres, as the record explicitly flags a nearside front tyre manufactured in 2007 and an offside rear from 2016, alongside previous notes of perished tread on both rear tyres. A physical inspection should focus on sidewall cracking and tread depth across all four corners. The history of thin front brake pads in 2023 necessitates a check of the remaining friction material and an assessment of the braking performance during the test drive. The recurring issues with headlamp lens deterioration and aim indicate a need to verify the actual light output and beam pattern. On the road, listen for any abnormal knocks or vibrations that may accompany the mileage, and feel for any steering pull or pedal judder that would suggest the wear of suspension linkages or brake discs.
