2012 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO12 FSP

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of neglect regarding basic consumable items. The most recent test in March 2026 at 21,023 miles flagged thin front brake pads and all four tyres reaching either legal wear limits or structural degradation. While the car passes annually, the recurring nature of these advisories suggests the owner only addresses faults when they are prompted by an MOT tester rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old Honda, having covered only 21,023 miles which averages roughly 1,500 miles per year. Between the February 2022 test at 18,645 miles and the March 2026 test at 21,023 miles, the vehicle covered just 2,378 miles. This low usage pattern indicates the car likely sits for long periods, which explains the persistent rubber cracking and perishing noted on the tyres across every single annual inspection since 2022. A buyer must physically inspect the tyres for sidewall rot, as the record shows cracking that persists despite the low mileage. The repeated reports of uneven wear on the front tyres in 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 indicate a likely alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that have gone unaddressed. Furthermore, the thin brake pads noted in the 2026 test require immediate attention to ensure the discs have not been scored or heat damaged due to prolonged use with worn material.
