This Jazz should have plenty more life left if serviced correctly and subject to more regular oil changes.

Bl00dy hell, what is it with everyone posting links to Pistonheads?   :D

Pistonheads think the average Honda Jazz driver is a wee-soaked 75 year old who hogs the middle lane at 56mph  :P

Anyway, I'd be inclined to use branded fully synthetic oil on such a high miler.

Just wondered if my '52 1.4 se is the highest mileage jazz with more than 103,000 miles?

What sort of maintenance has the car had and how is it running now?

What sort of miles do you cover? The Pistonheads car appears to be motorway miles which puts less strain on gears, brakes, steering, etc.

Hi,
My Jazz has been serviced on schedual (give or take a few miles!) and is still running with the same exhaust. The mileage has been 50% motorway 30% A raods and the rest town driving. The only two problems I have were an ABS sensor malfunction (poss caused by having brakes done on the cheap by neighbour) and now I need to replace the EGR valve. I'm not sure what you guys use but I have got Michelin energy tyres all round the last ones I replaced had covered 44,000 miles which seems very reasonable!  Thanks to a hit and run taxi it now has a large dent in then rear bumper !!

The 1.4 SE I have just bought had 105,000 on it. Full Honda service up to 96,000.
