2016 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO16 DXK

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass on September 11, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a minor failure just the previous day. The tester flagged a safety-critical bulge on the nearside front tyre due to structural separation, which was immediately rectified to allow for a successful pass with no further recorded defects. This suggests the current owner is responsive to safety-critical faults once identified during annual testing. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,225 miles per year. Between the September 2022 test at 24,980 miles and the 2025 test at 32,249 miles, the car covered only 7,269 miles. This low-use pattern typically reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it increases the risk of rubber-based components age-related degradation due to time rather than distance travelled. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the tyres and braking system, as the September 2022 record noted perishing and cracking on both front tyres. Low mileage often leads to dry rot in sidewalls even if tread depth remains high. The tester also identified the offside front brake disc as pitted and scored during that same period; a buyer should verify the surface condition of all discs to ensure that corrosion has not progressed from lack of use. Given the low annual mileage, checking the suspension bushes for cracks and fluid leaks is also advisable to ensure components have not become brittle over long periods of standing.
