2005 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · FP05 OPD

The 2005 Honda Jazz presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 September 2025 at 77,795 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken four-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults and no recurring advisories across the available history. Annual mileage remains low for a 21-year-old car. The record shows 65,711 miles at the 16 March 2022 test, rising to 70,610 by 22 March 2023, 73,927 by 16 March 2024, and 77,795 by September 2025. That equates to roughly 3,700 miles per year, with a slight gap between the March 2024 and September 2025 tests suggesting lighter use or a period of standing. The DVSA data is sparse in faults but clean throughout, with no tyre, brake, or emissions failures logged. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as the MOT record does not capture gradual structural degradation between tests. Low mileage and long idle periods often accelerate perishing of rubber components and surface rust on sills and floorpan. Check brake discs and calipers for binding or pitting caused by disuse, and verify the exhaust emissions under load. The absence of advisories implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but the age demands hands-on confirmation of mechanical integrity beyond the test bay.
