2009 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · FL59 EBG

The 2009 Honda Jazz presents a stable and broadly reassuring roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 28 May 2026 at 45,969 miles resulted in a clean pass with only minor advisories. Both rear tyres were flagged for slight damage, cracking, or perishing. This is a low-severity consumable item, yet its recurrence across multiple tests suggests a pattern of deferred basic maintenance rather than a serious mechanical concern. Overall, the maintenance trend is stable, with no dangerous or major structural defects recorded in the entire history. The mileage accumulation tells a consistent story of very light use. The vehicle has covered just 45,969 miles over approximately 17 years, averaging roughly 2,704 miles per year. The annual intervals between tests show steady but modest progression: from 32,135 miles in July 2022 to 33,155 miles by February 2023, then to 38,684 miles in June 2024, 41,970 miles in May 2025, and finally 45,969 miles in May 2026. This equates to roughly 3,000 to 4,000 miles per year in recent use. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer record. The data is clean and consistent with a vehicle used for short, local journeys. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the rear brakes and tyres during any in-person inspection. Rear brake discs were flagged as worn, pitted, or scored in the June 2024 test at 38,684 miles, and front brake discs were noted as worn in the May 2025 test at 41,970 miles. While neither advisory was severe enough to cause a failure, the repeated appearance of brake disc wear across both axles suggests the braking system has not been proactively renewed. The rear tyre perishing advisory appeared in 2024, 2025, and again in 2026, indicating these components may have aged through prolonged standing rather than use. A buyer should check the date codes on all tyres and inspect the condition of both front and rear brake discs and pads. Beyond the flagged items, the clean structural record is worth noting. No corrosion, suspension defects, or emissions failures have ever been recorded across six tests spanning over four years. The two child seat obstruction advisories in 2024 were procedural rather than mechanical. With such low annual mileage, a thorough inspection of rubber suspension bushes, exhaust system integrity, and underbody condition remains advisable, as long periods of standing can cause deterioration that MOT tests do not always capture.
