2022 Honda Jazz EX I-MMD CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · GY72 FCA

Low annual mileage and a very recent history of component-specific failure define this vehicle's recorded roadworthiness. While the most recent test on 14 October 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects, this followed a failure on the same day due to a major defect involving a cut in the offside rear tyre that had reached the ply or cords. This single failure indicates a specific instance of tyre damage rather than a systemic pattern of mechanical deterioration, as the subsequent inspection found no other issues. The vehicle has covered 14,055 miles over approximately four years, which averages to roughly 3,514 miles per year. This usage profile is significantly lower than the UK national average, suggesting the car has been used for short-distance trips or has spent extended periods stationary. Mechanically, such low mileage means that primary drivetrain and engine components typically experience less wear than high-mileage counterparts, but it also necessitates closer inspection of rubber components and seals which can degrade due to lack of regular movement and thermal cycling. Given the specific failure recorded regarding the offside rear tyre, a prospective buyer should inspect the remaining tyres for similar sidewall damage or irregular wear patterns that might suggest impact damage from kerbing or potholes. During a test drive, pay close attention to the rear suspension and tyre performance; listen for any rhythmic thumping or vibration that could indicate a structural weakness in the tyre carcass or an imbalance. Although the 2025 pass showed no other defects, the low mileage profile warrants a visual check of the brake discs for surface corrosion and an inspection of the suspension bushes to ensure they have not perished from lack of use. The absence of any other recorded advisories or failures in the DVSA history suggests that the vehicle's structural integrity and emissions levels have remained within acceptable limits during its time on the road. However, because the mileage is so low, the focus should remain on checking for any signs of fluid weeping from seals or excessive corrosion on the underside that can occur when a vehicle is not driven frequently enough to clear moisture from the chassis and exhaust system.
