2012 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO12 KND

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in March 2026 at 96,759 miles, but the recent MOT history reveals a trend of reactive maintenance rather than proactive care. The car failed its most recent test due to a blown offside front lamp and significant wear across brake pads and tyres. While these issues were rectified to secure the pass, the pattern suggests the owner only addresses mechanical faults when they threaten an MOT certificate, which can lead to accelerated component degradation. At 14 years old, the recorded mileage of 96,759 miles represents an annual average of approximately 6,900 miles, which is consistent with light domestic use. The data shows a significant jump of 18,352 miles covered between March 2024 (78,407 miles) and March 2026 (96,759 miles). This acceleration in usage over the last two-year period explains the rapid deterioration noted on the braking system and tyres, which moved from multiple advisories to a total failure in the 2026 test results. A buyer must specifically inspect the front suspension and alignment, as the recurring reports of inner and outer edge wear on both front tyres between 2024 and 2026 indicate potential tracking issues or worn suspension bushes. The braking system also requires close scrutiny; with records showing worn discs in 2023 and thin pads across all axles by 2026, the current hardware should be checked for glazing, thinning, or remaining life. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough inspection of the chassis for structural corrosion is also essential, though no structural failures have been noted in the provided history.
