2011 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RO61 AXP

The most recent MOT on 2025-11-18 recorded the vehicle as passed with 47,075 miles. The only issue noted was exhaust corrosion, a recurring defect seen in all prior MOTs from 2022 to 2025. This suggests a persistent problem with the exhaust system’s integrity, likely due to rust or environmental exposure. No other defects were recorded in this test, but the pattern of exhaust corrosion over multiple years indicates a systemic issue that may worsen without intervention. The MOT history reveals a consistent focus on exhaust corrosion, with this defect appearing in every test since 2022. Tire-related issues also emerged in 2023, including failed tread depth checks and a rear tire with a cut reaching the ply. These were addressed by 2024, as the following MOT showed no tire-related failures. However, the recurrence of exhaust corrosion over four consecutive tests highlights a growing risk, particularly if the corrosion compromises the exhaust’s structural or functional integrity. The vehicle’s mileage of 47,075 miles for a 15-year-old car is low, averaging 3,138 miles annually. This could indicate light use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which might contribute to rust formation in metal components like the exhaust.
