2008 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · AX08 NLN

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in April 2026 at 67,266 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows a period of improvement following a failure in July 2023. While previous tests flagged faulty wipers, mirrors, and exhaust leaks, the lack of advisories in the two most recent tests suggests that the current owner has addressed the mechanical and cosmetic issues previously identified by the tester. At 18 years old, the recorded mileage of 67,266 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 3,700 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over the last three years, with roughly 3,300 miles driven between the July 2025 and 2026 tests. This low-use profile generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it also increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber components and seals, which can become brittle due to time rather than mechanical friction. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the general underbody corrosion noted during the July 2025 test at 63,926 miles. While this did not cause a failure, corrosion on older Hondas requires close monitoring to ensure structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points. The exhaust system should also be inspected for signs of the leak reported in 2023 and 2024 to ensure the previous repair was effective and is not currently deforming again. Given the history of cuts on tyres in 2023 and 2025, a thorough check of the current sidewalls and tread depth is necessary to ensure the rubber has not suffered from dry- or cracking due to the low annual mileage.
