2012 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO12 FSD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the MOT record indicates a clear trend of worsening mechanical condition rather than stable maintenance. The most recent test in October 2025 was passed, yet subsequent inspections in October 2024 and October 2023 revealed significant degradation in suspension components, specifically worn axle support bushes on both sides. This deterioration has been consistent since the 2023 inspection, suggesting that basic upkeep was skipped during the ownership period. The mileage pattern is notably uneven, with a substantial gap between the 2023 and 2022 tests where the vehicle was tested at 35,595 and 33,408 miles respectively. This lack of accumulation suggests the car was not driven for many miles between these dates, yet the wear on the suspension bushings indicates that the drivetrain is already failing under normal usage patterns. The lack of data on the 2022 test results leaves the exact mileage on the 2021 and 2020 dates unknown, but the 2021 test at 33,408 miles confirms that the vehicle has been in service for approximately 14 years. Given the recurring failure of suspension bushings and the lack of data on the earlier years of service, the vehicle requires immediate structural inspection. The buyer must verify the condition of the rear sub-frame pin and bushings, check for corrosion on the brake discs and inner edges of the brakes, and inspect the plastic under trays for cracks or deformations. Additionally, the binding condition of the service brakes must be confirmed, as the 2022 record indicates the brakes are excessively binding, which suggests a need for immediate professional assessment before the vehicle is sold.
