2005 Honda Jazz 1.2L Petrol · SE05 SJV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of recurring electrical and structural issues. The most recent test on October 3 2025 at 99,115 miles resulted in a pass after failing just one day prior due to an ABS fault. This specific fault was also noted during the September 2023 test at 94,210 miles, suggesting a persistent electronic sensor or module failure that was only recently addressed or cleared enough for the final successful inspection. At 21 years old, the recorded mileage of 99,115 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,720 miles per year. The data indicates a consistent usage pattern, with only roughly 4,900 miles covered between the 2023 and 2025 MOT tests. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between periods of use can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and accelerated corrosion, which is consistent with the structural observations noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the underbody, as general rust under the car rust was flagged in both the 2023 and 2025 tests. While the vehicle did not fail on corrosion, the presence of rust on an older Honda requires monitoring for structural integrity issues or future perforation. Additionally, the buyer should verify that the ABS system is now functioning correctly and that the warning lamp has not returned. Given the history of inoperative bulbs and insecure bumper components, a thorough check of all external lighting wiring and the security of bodywork is necessary to ensure no further neglected defects remain.
