2009 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · LM59 LBV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 with 67,301 miles and no recorded defects. The trend shows an improving pattern where the owner consistently addressed recurring electrical and mechanical faults identified in previous tests. While the history indicates minor failures regarding lighting and brake wear, the clean result sheet from the latest inspection suggests that the immediate mechanical condition is currently maintained to a functional legal standard. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 67,301 miles represents an exceptionally low average of approximately 4,000 miles per year. This low usage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components, but it introduces risks associated with aged rubber parts and fluid degradation. Between August 2024 and September 2025, the car covered 5,487 miles, showing a slight increase in usage compared to its historical average. The consistency of annual testing suggests the vehicle is used regularly for short trips rather than being left stationary for extended long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the lighting system and braking assembly, as registration plate lamp failures and headlamp aim issues appeared repeatedly across 2023, 2024, and 2025. The tester flagged thin front brake pads in May 2023 at 58,041 miles, necessitating a check of the current pad thickness and disc condition. Given the age and low mileage, it is also vital to inspect the chassis for structural corrosion and the suspension bushings for cracking, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from age-related material fatigue rather than mechanical wear from distance.
