2010 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · LM60 XRN

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the record reveals a persistent trend of deferred maintenance regarding the braking system. The most recent test in March 2026 at 44,604 miles identified both rear brake discs as pitted and scored. This follows a recurring issue seen in March 2025 and 2020, where similar surface corrosion was noted. While the car consistently passes, the repeated flagging of hardware suggests a reactive rather than proactive approach. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,800 miles per year. There are significant gaps in usage, such as the 3,740-mile interval between February 2019 and February 2022, which spanned nearly three years. This low mileage explains the relatively low wear on the drivetrain but increases the risk of age-related degradation of materials, as evidenced by the perishing tyres noted in February 2023 and the failure due to exposed cords in early 2024. A buyer should prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the braking assembly and rubber components. The history of pitting and scoring on the discs indicates the vehicle may sit for long periods, allowing moisture to corrode the metal surfaces without the friction of regular braking to clear them. Check for seized calipers and inspect tyre sidewalls for cracks or dry rot, given the previous reports of deterioration. Additionally, the inner-edge tyre wear noted in 2016 and 2023 suggests a lingering alignment or suspension geometry issue that requires verification.
