Our Verdict
Caution is advised due to recent brake a
When considering this Jazz, verify the condition of all four tyres and confirm that any cracked or edge‑wear tyres have been replaced since the 2025 MOT warning. Inspect the rear brake pads, discs and the parking brake system, as the 2024 failure highlighted worn pads, a worn disc and binding service brakes. Ask the seller for receipts or records of recent brake or tyre work, and factor the cost of replacement into your offer.
Negotiate on the price by highlighting the upcoming expense of new tyres and brake components, as well as any remedial work needed for the under‑body corrosion noted in the 2026 MOT. A reasonable price reduction can offset the expected cost of rust treatment around the rear axle and any corrosion‑related repairs. If possible, obtain a full service history to see when the last brake fluid change and suspension checks were performed, as these can influence future reliability.
Be aware that the Honda Jazz generally enjoys a respectable MOT pass rate of 81.9% across the model fleet, but common failure points include tyres and anti‑roll bar issues. This vehicle's history aligns with those trends, so budgeting for tyre and brake maintenance is prudent.
The 1.3‑litre petrol engine in the Jazz typically achieves around 45 mpg, giving an annual fuel cost of roughly £500‑£600 based on average UK mileage. As a small‑engine vehicle it falls into the lowest road‑tax band (often £0), which helps keep running costs down.
Insurance groups for 2007 Jazz models usually sit in the 12‑14 range, translating to an annual premium of about £400‑£600 depending on the driver’s profile. Routine maintenance for a vehicle of this age, including oil changes, brake service and tyre replacement, can add another £200‑£300 per year. Combining fuel, tax, insurance and typical maintenance yields an estimated annual running cost of £800‑£1,000.
Focus first on the tyres: the MOT records show tyre damage and edge wear in 2024 and tyres close to the legal limit in 2025. Check tread depth, sidewall integrity and look for any cracking that could indicate the same issues re‑appearing.
Next, examine the rear braking system closely. The 2024 failure listed rear brake pads below 1.5 mm, a worn rear disc and excessive binding of the service brake, plus a weak parking brake. Verify pad and disc thickness, test the parking brake lever for proper hold, and listen for any unusual noises when applying the brakes.
Finally, inspect the under‑body, especially around the rear axle where corrosion was noted in the 2026 MOT. Look for rust on suspension components, chassis brackets and the exhaust system. Any significant rust may require treatment or part replacement, which can be costly.
The 2007 Honda Jazz (DG57 CKE) has accumulated 55,524 miles, which is below the model's average annual mileage of 5,204 miles. Its MOT record shows a recent pass in September 2026 but also a failure in August 2024 for tyre damage and multiple brake issues, and tyre wear warnings in 2025. Under‑body corrosion was noted in the latest test, suggesting potential rust concerns. Overall, the car offers low mileage for its age but will likely need attention to tyres, brakes and corrosion areas.
The Honda Jazz has an average MOT pass rate of 81.9% across the model fleet, with tyre and anti‑roll bar issues being the most common failures.
