I'm 62 and I consider myself as a sportier style driver who has cat and mouse driving with other larger model cars at 70 on the motorway.  In 9 months that had a Jazz I've only once met one Jazz owner/driver to play with,  all the others have travelling well below 70 as in the case of a lot of drivers.  Most of which driving to be economical,  I'm very happy to get 38 mpg on my motorway driving.  My Jazz is a 1.2 stop start 2012 model which compared to the previous 1.2 Fabia is miles better in comfort and space inside and fuel efficient (33 mpg) with my driving style

Here in Hong Kong, I'd say over 70% of jazz owners (GE n GD) are under 35 and out of which almost 50% are under 30s. Well, given the proximity to Japan and China where we can get cheap mod parts, so Jazzes here are heavily modded.....

Me, 42, have a Golf MK6 GTI and One day me n gf drove passed Honda showroom decided to stop by to see if we should buy ourselves a cr-z as our second car...... But My gf loved the Jazz at the  first glance, and there you go. Got the GE6 cvt in dolphin grey!

13 months since we have it, love driving this little beauty around for both work and leisure. And the golf is now rarely used .... And even thinking to sell it for the new Jazz 1.5 RS.....  :P

It only seems to be in Britain and parts of Northern Europe that Jazz is seen as an old persons car,  in USA and Asia it is definitely seen as a choice of younger drivers and also young people with families due to lots of room inside and sheer versatility, with easy access,  doors which open wide and pretty big boot space. 
Some people will only consider you an expert if they agree with your point of view or advice,  when you give them advice they don't like they consider you an idiot

Here some interesting information after visiting my dealer today with a poorly jazz, I was shocked how busy the new car sales where, i was there for 1hr and 45mins and I counted 7 couples sat in the customer waiting area for a rep to help place an order for a new honda and over heard a rep say, since starting here 7 years ago, 2015 has been the busiest year and the new models to come out will sure boost honda on the map again, sadly the age group was AOP and me been 21 I felt out of place! LMAO

Hello to you all.
I'm a less than proud owner of a jazz with lock trouble.

Just bought a 2007 Auto (CVT) Honda Jazz 1.4 Sport in Black.
I am based in Cyprus and the car is UK sourced.
I've had it for 1 hour so far and love it - 46,000 miles.

I am a very youthful 56 year old and bought this car to fit all my kitesurfing and mountainbiking gear (I did say I was a youthful!).

I need mats (they were stolen in transit) and an arm rest - any recommendations that might export to Cyprus. Any other accessories that you recommend?

The age profile is funny... as the forum member at 59 I'm smack bang in the most popular age profile but the car was chosen and bough by my daughter who's 18 and apparently only a quarter as likely to have Jazz.

Mind you she is a neat, quiet & polite 18yr old who's very good with saving her money so perhaps she's already working towards the traditional Jazz profile.

Back in my home country, Hondas are always the preferred choice among youths. We don't get Jazz but instead get Honda City which is sort of like Jazz and it is quite popular among the younger crowd. We have three Cities(?) in the extended family. A third gen 1.5 VTEC (very rare as most were 1.3), a 3rd Gen facelift 1.3 VTEC EX and a 1.3 iDSI City (Aria).

me? im a 32 so I guess much younger than the average UK Jazz owners or am i ? Don't see a reason why though but yeah over in Yaris club everyone was much younger. I think a certain factor is cost of entry (used and new).

at 19 you are probably the youngest Jazz owner in UK.  ;)
