Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the Honda Ja
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the offside doors and front wing, as damage to these panels has been noted in MOT records since at least 2024. You should use the cost of repairing this bodywork as a primary negotiation point. Given the mileage has now exceeded 100,000, request full service records to ensure the 1.3L engine has been maintained according to Honda's intervals.
Pay close attention to the wheels and tyres. The 2025 record specifically mentions a distorted nearside front road wheel, and there have been repeated failures and advisories regarding tyre cuts and wear. Ensure that any tyres currently fitted are of a reputable brand and have plenty of tread, as the history suggests a tendency toward running tyres to their legal limit.
The 1.3L petrol engine is known for efficiency, keeping fuel costs relatively low for urban and suburban driving. As a small petrol car, it typically falls into a lower insurance group and a modest annual road tax band, making it an economical choice for daily use.
However, maintenance costs may be higher for this specific vehicle due to its mileage. With the 2026 MOT highlighting worn brake discs and suspension arm bushes, you should budget for imminent suspension and braking system refreshes. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and necessary maintenance, are likely to be between £1,200 and £1,500.
Inspect the offside of the vehicle carefully for the door and front wing damage noted in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 MOT tests. Check the nearside front wheel for any signs of distortion or vibration during a test drive, as this was a recorded failure in 2025.
Review the current state of the front brake discs and the front lower suspension arm bushes, both of which were flagged as worn in the June 2026 test. Finally, check the windscreen wiper blades and washer fluid system, as these caused the most recent MOT failure.
This blue 2016 Honda Jazz has covered 104,126 miles, which is significantly higher than the model's average annual mileage of 5,243. The MOT history reveals recurring issues with tyre condition and a distorted road wheel, alongside persistent offside body damage. While it has passed its most recent tests, the records show a pattern of failures followed by immediate passes, primarily involving wear-and-tear items.
The Honda Jazz has a strong reliability reputation, with an average MOT pass rate of 81.4% across over 345,000 analysed vehicles.
