2009 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · GU59 YJB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing inspections. The most recent test on 2 October 2025 at 74,300 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a technical failure just one day prior at 74,293 miles. While the failure recorded no specific defects, it suggests a minor component issue such as a bulb or a sensor that was rectified immediately before the re-test. Since 2022, the car has maintained a clean inspection record. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,300 miles per year. Between October 2022 at 65,373 miles and October 2025 at 74,300 miles, the car covered only 8,927 miles, indicating very infrequent use. This low mileage typically implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low-use vehicles of this age often suffer from age-related degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown which do not always manifest in an MOT history. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related wear rather than mileage-induced fatigue. Given the low usage, inspect the chassis and suspension mounting for surface corrosion or structural rust, as stationary vehicles can develop moisture-related over long periods. The brakes should be checked for pitting or seized calipers, which are common in cars that are not driven regularly. Additionally, examine the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking or rot, as these materials lose elasticity over time regardless of the miles recorded.
