Our Verdict
This 2016 Honda Jazz is a highly compell
When inspecting this vehicle, focus on the impact of its infrequent use. While the low mileage is a positive, vehicles that sit for long periods can sometimes develop issues with seized brake components or battery degradation. Ensure you verify the service history to see if the low mileage has been accompanied by regular annual oil changes, which are vital for engine longevity regardless of distance covered.
Negotiate based on the age of the tyres and the recent advisory regarding the nearside front tyre. Even if the cut is not deep enough to fail an MOT, a tyre with a cut on a ten-year-old car may be approaching the end of its safe lifespan due to rubber hardening or sidewall fatigue. Use this as a point to discuss the cost of a full set of fresh rubber.
The 1.3-litre petrol engine in the 2016 Jazz is known for being economical, typically returning strong fuel efficiency in both urban and motorway driving. As a 2016 model, it falls into a favourable road tax bracket, and its insurance group is generally low, making it an affordable choice for a wide range of drivers.
Maintenance costs for the Honda Jazz are typically competitive, as parts are widely available and the mechanical layout is straightforward. You should budget for annual servicing and occasional wear-and-tear items like wiper blades and brake pads, which are common replacement points for this model. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, are approximately £900-£1,200.
Prioritise a thorough check of the tyres and braking system. The MOT history noted a cut in the nearside front tyre in December 2025; verify if this has been replaced or if the tyre remains in a condition that requires immediate attention. Given the low annual mileage, ensure the brakes do not show signs of surface corrosion or 'binding' from lack of regular use.
Check the windscreen wipers, as these were flagged as a defect in the 2024 MOT. While simple to replace, it is worth checking the condition of the glass for any chips or cracks that might have occurred during the vehicle's time on the road. Finally, inspect the electrical components, including the headlamps, as these are identified as common failure points across the wider Honda Jazz model range.
With a recorded mileage of just 12,462 over a ten-year period, this silver 1.3-litre petrol Jazz has covered significantly less ground than the average vehicle of its age. The MOT history is remarkably clean, showing five consecutive passes with only minor, easily rectified issues noted. It represents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-preserved example of this practical supermini.
The Honda Jazz consistently performs well in aggregate MOT data, with a strong reputation for mechanical longevity and reliability compared to the segment average.
