2006 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · RV56 YUW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on June 2 2025 at 153,325 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a successful pass in June 2024 after a brief failure just five days prior, suggesting the current owner is proactive in addressing immediate mechanical requirements to ensure the vehicle remains legal. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a twenty-year-old Honda, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and June 2024, the car covered 27,119 miles, while the interval between June 2023 and June 2025 saw a further 37,409 miles. This regular usage profile is generally beneficial for older vehicles as it prevents seals from drying out and components from seizing during long periods of standing. The lack of significant gaps in mileage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left to neglect. While the clean records in recent years are encouraging, a buyer must focus on the structural integrity of the chassis during a physical inspection. Honda vehicles of this era are prone to corrosion on the sills and rear suspension mounting points, which the MOT test does not always catch until it becomes structural. The buyer should also inspect for wear on the suspension bushes and control arms, as the high mileage often leads to degradation of rubber components. Given the age of the car, checking for oil leaks around the engine and gearbox is a necessary step to ensure the clean MOT history reflects a well-maintained mechanical state.
