2009 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · LG59 XMZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows the first signs of structural degradation. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 177,151 miles passed, it highlighted corrosion on the nearside and offside rear suspension component mounting areas. Although the tester did not consider this excessive for the sill panels, the presence of rust in these specific areas indicates the beginning of a process that requires close monitoring to prevent structural failure. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent, with the car averaging approximately 10,400 miles per year over its seventeen-year life. The record shows a steady accumulation of roughly 16,500 miles annually between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 16,676 miles in the following year. This high level of regular use suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often benefits rubber components and engine seals, despite the higher total mileage wear on mechanical parts. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension mounts to determine if the corrosion noted in 2025 has progressed beyond the surface level. The 2023 advisory regarding a pitted and scored nearside rear brake disc suggests that the braking system may be prone to corrosion or neglect, so the current thickness and condition of all discs require verification. Additionally, the stone chip in the nearside windscreen should be monitored for cracks, as temperature changes could lead to a structural failure of the glass.
