2018 Honda Jazz 1.5L Petrol · XG02 AMY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on June 9, 2026, but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding consumable components. While it passed the latest test at 87,968 miles, it failed just ten days prior due to critical safety defects. The presence of exposed ply and cords on the sidewall of the nearside front tyre and a nail in the nearside rear tyre indicates that the previous owner neglected essential tyre maintenance until forced to address it by the MOT tester. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. The car progressed from 47,048 miles in July 2023 to 61,065 miles in June 2024, followed by a significant jump of 13,362 miles to reach 74,427 miles by June 2025, and further to the recent test. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use, which explains the progressive wear observed on the braking system and tyres throughout the record. A buyer must scrutinise the braking system, as the record shows a recurring history of thin pads and pitted or scored discs dating back to 2024. The 2026 test specifically noted worn front discs and thin rear pads, suggesting the entire braking assembly is nearing or at the end of its service life. A physical inspection should also verify the handbrake adjustment, which was flagged as high in 2023, and check the condition of the newly replaced tyres to ensure the uneven wear and perishing noted in previous years have been fully rectified.
