2012 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO12 FSF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward deferred wear-related repairs. The most recent test in November 2025 at 81,742 miles passed despite an advisory for perished or cracking on both rear tyres. This follows a progression from the 2024 test where thin rear brake pads were flagged, indicating that while the car is passing its inspections, the owner is only addressing components as they approach failure limits rather than preventatively. At 14 years old, the recorded mileage of 81,742 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,800 miles per year. This low usage profile typically reduces mechanical strain on the engine and drivetrain, yet the data shows consistent annual intervals of roughly 6,000 to 8,000 miles between tests from 2021 and 2025. Such low mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components, as evidenced by the cracking sidewalls noted in the 2025 record. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension geometry. The history highlights recurring issues with brake components, including thin front pads in 2021 and thin rear pads in 2024, alongside a pitted nearside rear disc. Furthermore, the 2022 advisory regarding uneven wear on the nearside front tyre edge suggests an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that requires verification. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, all tyres and exposed rubber seals should be checked specifically for dry rot and perishing regardless of remaining tread depth.
