2011 Honda Jazz 1.2L Petrol · SD11 MXF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test on 13 June 2026 at 75,973 miles passed, it flagged persistent issues with front tyre wear and pitted brake discs. These faults follow a failure in June 2025 where the tester identified damaged track rod end dust covers, ineffective wipers, and an electronic stability control fault. The pattern suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical defects once they trigger an MOT failure, rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. At 75,973 miles, this 15-year-old Honda has averaged approximately 5,065 miles per year. This low usage often leads to age-related degradation of rubber components rather than mechanical wear alone. There is a significant gap in the record between the August 2023 and the June 2025 tests, during which the vehicle covered nearly 9,500 miles. The low mileage is consistent with the presence of corrosion on the front cross member noted in 2022, as vehicles that sit for long periods are more susceptible to surface rust and structural oxidation. A buyer must inspect the front suspension closely to ensure the track rod end repairs from the 2025 failure were executed correctly. The recurring mention of front tyres worn on the edges across multiple years indicates an ongoing alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require professional attention. Additionally, the front brake discs were flagged as pitted and scored in both 2023 and 2026, suggesting they are nearing the end of their functional life. A structural check of the front cross member is vital to ensure the corrosion noted in 2022 has not progressed into a structural failure.
