2006 Honda Jazz 1.3L Petrol · YT06 VUX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding rubber and corrosion components. While it passed its most recent test in November the2025 at 55,582 miles, it failed earlier that same day due to multiple safety issues including a failed anti-roll bar linkage, a binding nearside front brake, and perished rear tyres. The presence of these faults suggests that while the car remains operational, critical components are suffering from age-related degradation rather than high-mile wear. At 55,582 miles, this twenty-year-old Honda reflects low usage, averaging approximately 2,779 miles per year. The data shows consistent annual testing with intervals of roughly 7,000 to 7,500 miles covered between each October test from 2022 to 2025. However, the low mileage profile explains the accelerated deterioration of perishables, such as the cracking tyres and deteriorated suspension bushes noted in the 2025 records, which often dry out over time despite having remaining tread depth. A buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the braking and suspension systems. The record flags persistent light corrosion across all brake pipes consistently since at least 2023, which will eventually lead to structural failure of the lines if not monitored or treated. The worn offside front suspension arm bush and rear bushes have appeared in advisories between 2022 and 2025, indicating the rubber components are reaching the end of their functional life. The binding nearside front brake identified in late 2025 also requires checking for a seized caliper piston to prevent premature pad wear or disc overheating.
