2009 Honda Jazz I-Vtec SE 1.2L Petrol · NC58 STZ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 14 June 2025 at 90,322 miles resulted in no defects, maintaining a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. This lack of failures suggests that the mechanical and safety-critical components are operating within acceptable parameters without immediate evidence of neglect or recurring advisories. The mileage pattern is notably low for a seventeen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap in records between December 2019 at 83,543 miles and February 2022 at 89,122 miles, during which the car covered only 6,000 miles in two years. Since 2022, usage has slowed even further, covering just 1,200 miles in the following year. This low usage typically indicates less wear on the engine and gearbox compared to high-mileage-runners. While the MOT record shows no faults, a buyer must focus on age-related degradation rather than mileage-related wear. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from components such as suspension bushes, rubber seals, and brake hoses that perish over time rather than through use. The physical inspection should specifically check for corrosion on the chassis and structural sills, as older Honda models are prone to rust if left stationary. Additionally, the brake discs should be examined for pitting or surface, which frequently occurs when a vehicle sits unused for long periods.
