Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to documented c
When viewing this vehicle, your primary focus should be on the underside and sills. The 2024 MOT specifically noted corrosion on the nearside rear inner integral body structure (sill), so you must check if this has been professionally treated or if it is progressing. Ask the seller for any evidence of welding or rust prevention work carried out following the 2024 test.
Additionally, inspect the suspension components. The 2021 MOT recorded corroded coil springs on both sides, which is a common point of failure. Check that the tyres are in good condition, as the 2024 record highlighted perishing and cracking on the rear tyres. Finally, verify the service history to see if the higher-than-average mileage has been supported by regular maintenance.
The 1.2L petrol engine is generally economical for urban driving. You should expect moderate fuel costs consistent with a small-capacity petrol engine. As a 2009 model, tax and insurance groups are likely to be relatively low, making it an affordable option for budget-conscious drivers.
However, potential maintenance costs could be higher due to the age and mileage. You should budget for upcoming repairs related to the suspension or potential brake work, as brake pads are a common failure reason for this model. Estimated annual running costs typically cover fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing.
First, perform a thorough inspection of the vehicle's underside. Specifically, look at the nearside rear sill area where structural corrosion was flagged in 2024. Any signs of bubbling paint or surface rust in this area should be treated as a red flag. Check the underbody generally for the corrosion mentioned in the 2021 MOT.
Second, examine the headlights. The MOT history shows repeated advisories regarding 'product on the lens' (clouding/oxidation) across 2021, 2024, and 2025. While this is a minor issue, it affects visibility and aesthetic appeal. Lastly, check the coil springs and tyre sidewalls for any signs of cracking or significant corrosion, as these were previous points of concern in the MOT records.
This 2009 silver Honda Jazz 1.2 petrol has covered 121,557 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average of 5,243 miles per year. The MOT history shows a pattern of headlight lens degradation and, more critically, recorded corrosion on the nearside rear inner integral body structure and underbody. While the 2025 MOT passed with only minor lighting advisories, the history of structural and suspension component corrosion suggests a vehicle that has been exposed to significant wear.
The Honda Jazz shows an average MOT pass rate of 81.4% across the dataset, with common issues involving headlamps, wipers, and brake pads.
