2012 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · FM12 BWN

The Honda Jazz presents as roadworthy following its most recent test, a pass recorded on 29 August 2025 at 87,971 miles with no defects listed. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available records, with every pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories or mechanical faults carried forward. The vehicle cleared its August 2025 examination without issue. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2012 registration, rising from 78,811 miles at the October 2023 test to 82,894 miles by August 2024 and 87,971 miles by August 2025. That equates to roughly 4,000 to 5,000 miles per year across this period, below the long-term average of 6,284 and suggesting light use. The record is sparse but clean, with no intermediate tests and no consumable wear or corrosion entries logged at any stage. Two failed tests on 21 August 2024 and 29 August 2025 were logged at identical mileages to the subsequent passes on the following days, both with no defects recorded. This pattern indicates administrative or presentation failures rather than mechanical faults, though a buyer should confirm the exact refusal reasons on the DVLA portal. The absence of any flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity concerns points to a car that has not required notable rectification work. Given the unbroken clean test history, a physical inspection should still verify tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and underbody corrosion that MOT advisories might omit. The low annual mileage and repeated zero-defect passes imply previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but standing periods between short journeys can conceal perished rubber components not caught in a static test.
