2023 Honda Jazz Crosstar EX I-MMD CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · YK23 VHB

This Honda Jazz Crossstar has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness record, passing its most recent MOT test on 12 March 2026 with no defects recorded at 23,325 miles. The absence of advisories or failings in the single available test suggests the vehicle has not experienced any recurring mechanical or structural issues requiring attention during its current ownership. However, the test was conducted just four months ago, meaning the vehicle has not yet reached the mandatory MOT renewal threshold at 12 months. This relatively short interval between test and current date allows for a cautious observation period, though it does not preclude the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection. The recorded mileage of 23,325 miles over approximately three years—roughly 7,775 miles annually—falls within the expected range for a vehicle of this age and model. There are no gaps in the MOT record to suggest prolonged periods of disuse, nor any rapid spikes in mileage that might indicate aggressive driving or deferred maintenance. The lack of multiple test entries prevents a deeper trend analysis, but the single pass without failings implies consistent basic upkeep. That said, the CVT transmission and suspension components—common wear points on this model—should be scrutinised, as their condition cannot be confirmed by MOT alone. Given the sparse MOT history, a buyer should prioritise inspecting the CVT transmission for fluid degradation or unusual noises, particularly under acceleration or deceleration. The suspension system, including coil springs, bushes, and dampers, warrants close examination for uneven wear or binding, as these components are not routinely tested in depth during an MOT. Brake discs and pads should be checked for uneven wear or excessive thickness variation, though the absence of failings in the most recent test suggests no immediate critical issues. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and underbody panels, is another critical area—even at this mileage, prolonged exposure to UK road conditions can accelerate deterioration in less well-maintained examples.
