2014 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · YM14 XEE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. The most recent test in July 2025 at 72,756 miles resulted in an initial failure due to blown position bulbs, a cracked tail light lens, and a missing mirror cover. While the car passed immediately upon rectification, the presence of these lighting-related failures suggests the previous owner only addresses defects when necessitated by the MOT tester rather than performing routine visual checks. At 72,756 miles, the Honda Jazz has averaged approximately 6,000 miles per year, which is consistent with typical low-use patterns for its age. There is a notable gap in records between the September 2022 test at 55,029 miles and the February 2024 test at 63,905 miles, representing less than 9,000 miles driven over seventeen months. This pattern suggests the vehicle may sit for extended periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid quality despite the relatively low overall mileage. A buyer should focus on the braking system and suspension during a physical inspection. The record shows recurring thin brake pads at both the front in 2024 and the rear in 2022, indicating that components are being run until the point of failure. Furthermore, the offside front tyre was flagged as worn close to the legal limit in both 2024 and 2025. This repeated edge wear suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require a professional diagnostic check to prevent premature wear of new tyres.
