2013 Honda Jazz 1.2L Petrol · GF13 LFE

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 25 July 2026 at 46,740 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record reveals a recurring pattern of consumable wear issues rather than mechanical failure. While the latest test identified a damaged nearside rear tyre with cracking and a nail, these are minor defects that do not indicate a broader decline in the structural integrity or mechanical health of the Honda. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the decade, showing a steady progression from 21,924 miles in 2016 to 46,740 miles in 2026. However, the low mileage correlates with the age of rubber-based components, as seen in the frequent mentions of tyre perishing and cracking in the 2019, 2023, and 2026 tests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres, as the history shows a trend of dry rot and sidewall damage which suggests the vehicle may sit for long periods. The 2019 report noted imbalanced front brakes requiring adjustment, necessitating a check of the brake calipers and sliders for seizing or corrosion due to lack of use. Additionally, the 2020 failure regarding a severely deteriorated anti-roll bar linkage dust cover indicates that rubber bushings in the suspension should be thoroughly inspected for cracking or tearing, despite the low mileage.
