2022 Honda Jazz EX I-MMD CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · AV71 LBA

The most recent MOT conducted in February 2026 resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating a positive maintenance trend compared to the previous year. The 2025 inspection highlighted several advisories regarding tyre wear and sidewall cuts, but the clean result in 2026 suggests that these issues were proactively addressed, likely through the replacement of the tyre set. This transition from multiple advisories to a clean certificate is a reassuring sign of recent mechanical attention and suggests the owner is responsive to maintenance requirements. At 51,517 miles, the vehicle has covered approximately 12,879 miles per year over its four-year lifespan. This represents a higher-than-average usage profile, suggesting the car has been used frequently for commuting or long-distance travel. While consistent usage often prevents issues related to fluid degradation or brake binding from long periods of standing, the higher mileage means that wear-and-tear components such as suspension bushes, coil springs, brake pads, and tyres will have undergone more significant cycles of use. You should expect to see more advanced wear on these consumables compared to a lower-mileage equivalent of the same age. During your inspection and test drive, you must pay close attention to the front axle. The previous advisories for uneven tyre wear on the nearside and offside front tyres are significant; even if the tyres have been replaced, you should check the current tread for any signs of irregular wear on the inner or outer edges. Uneven wear is often a symptom of incorrect wheel alignment or worn suspension components like ball joints or bushes. Listen for any knocking or clunking sounds when driving over speed bumps or uneven road surfaces, and check for any pulling to one side or steering wheel vibration at higher speeds, which could indicate alignment issues or worn steering components. Furthermore, inspect the brake discs for signs of heavy scoring or excessive corrosion, and ensure the calipers are not binding, which can cause overheating and premature wear. Given the hybrid nature of this Honda Jazz, confirm that the service history includes regular checks of the hybrid cooling system and that the 12V battery is in good health. Check the tyre sidewalls carefully for any cuts or bulges, as the previous history noted minor damage to multiple tyres. Finally, verify that the service book contains consistent stamps to ensure that oil changes and fluid replacements have been carried out according to the manufacturer's intervals, which is vital for the longevity of the CVT transmission.
