2014 Honda Jazz 1.2L Petrol · CV14 WML

The vehicle remains technically roadworthy as evidenced by its most recent MOT pass in August 2025 at 60,669 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a clear shift toward reactive consumable management. While the car has passed without major mechanical or structural failures, the recurring advisories regarding uneven tyre wear across the last three tests suggest that the owner defers maintenance until components reach legal limits rather than performing proactive fit checks. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old Honda, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. There is a distinct period of inactivity between June 2021 and September 2022, where the car covered only 22 miles in over thirteen months. Since 2022, the usage has increased significantly, covering over 32,000 miles in just three years. This transition from low to moderate usage often accelerates age-related degradation of rubber components, such as suspension bushes and seals, which may correlate with the edge-worn tyre issues noted in more recent records. A buyer should prioritise an inspection of the suspension geometry, as the consistent reports of tyres worn on the edge in 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate persistent alignment issues or worn ball joints and bushings. This pattern of wear can lead to premature tyre failure if the underlying mechanical cause is not addressed. Given the low mileage and periods of standing, the inspector should also check the brake discs for corrosion and seized calipers, as these are prone to seizing on vehicles that are not driven at regular intervals.
