2013 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · NV62 RBF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive wear-related repairs. In the most recent test in November 2025 at 55,319 miles, the tester identified a severely deteriorated offside front lower anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover and a nearside front tyre worn to the legal limit. These defects represent a departure from the clean records seen between 2020 and 2024, suggesting that components are now beginning to age despite the low overall mileage. At 55,319 miles over thirteen years, this Honda Jazz has covered exceptionally low distances, averaging approximately 4,255 miles per year. This low usage pattern is consistent throughout the history, with significant gaps such as the 5,700 miles between October 2024 and November 2025. While low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and gearbox, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components, as evidenced by the 2019 record where all four tyres were flagged for cracking and per at 27,820 miles. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the anti-roll bar linkage faults appeared in 2019 and recurred in 2025. This recurring issue suggests the rubber boots and joints are prone to drying out rather than failing through fatigue. Given the history of perished tyres, a physical check of the current tyre sidewalls for dry-cracking is essential to ensure the age of the rubber has not compromised structural integrity despite sufficient tread depth.
