2011 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · DU11 OPJ

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently in the non-conforming category, as the most recent MOT test on 2025-05-20 failed. This indicates that the vehicle has not met the safety standards of the UK Motor Vehicle Agency (DVS) since the previous inspection on 2025-05-19. The failure occurred at 85,941 miles, placing the vehicle at approximately 15 years old, which is the standard age for a used car in this jurisdiction. The test results show a distinct gap in the history, with the most recent failure occurring just before the final test date, suggesting that the maintenance record has not been kept strictly up to date or that the vehicle has suffered significant wear since the last valid inspection. The mileage pattern reveals a clear accumulation of wear, particularly in the suspension and braking systems, which is consistent with the vehicle's age and usage. The test dates show that the most recent failure was on 2025-05-19 at 85,941 miles, followed by a passing test on 2024-06-12 at 74,119 miles. This gap of roughly 13,000 miles between the two failures suggests that the vehicle has not undergone a full service interval since the last MOT, leaving the suspension bushings, brake discs, and mounting areas exposed to corrosion and potential structural failure. The rapid mileage increase since the 2025-05-19 failure indicates that the vehicle is approaching the threshold where consumables such as brake pads or bushings may need to be replaced soon. Given the recurring faults identified in the MOT records, a buyer should inspect the vehicle in person for structural integrity and wear on critical components. The most significant risk is the corrosion in the rear suspension mounting prescribed area, which affects the suspension geometry and can lead to a loss of caster or a complete failure of the rear suspension linkage. Additionally, the severe deterioration of the anti-roll bar linkage ball joints and the wear on the front brake pads present serious mechanical risks. A buyer must verify that the suspension components, particularly the rear mounting area and anti-roll bars, are not rusted or loose before proceeding, as these issues could compromise the vehicle's handling and safety.
