used Honda Jazz 1.4 VTEC with 245.000 km

[HonZen]

Hello,
I want to buy used Honda Jazz and i found 1.4 VTEC 2011, but it has 245.000 kilometers already. It's quite cheap in comparison to other possibilities (4.500 euro). Is it worth considering even with so much kilometers? I've heard Honda is really reliable, so i guess 200.000 kilometers moremight not be a problem, eh ?
What do you think, what are your experiences ? 
BTW this model has really good eqipment.

My Mk1 Jazz had 248,000 km on the clock when rust took it and it was mechanically first class. The engine never missed a beat and it was still the original discs and calipers. I had replaced the gearbox bearings, but that was a known problem with many Mk1s. I would not worry about mileage on a Jazz. One owner here had done 256,000 MILES in their driving school Jazz.

So the rust might be a problem huh?
Is there anything else that i have to be careful with or look for, when buying old used Honda jazz (2nd generation probably around 2010-2013)?
Thank you.

A lot of errors might occur just before the 12V battery fails. So in case of any error codes, lights on your dash coming on etc.: check the battery first.
This is a bulletproof car with no major issues (okay, the i-shift maybe… but this is a cvt so this is not an issue).

Mine was a 2006 and the UK salt the roads all winter. Plus it spent its whole life by the coast. I have seen older ones than mine that were immaculate.
Is it a manual or a CVT?

It's manual .

It's all about condition on any car over 7 years old.
If it's not been maintained,has odd tyres & been accident damaged walk away.
There are 100 of reasonable MK2 Jazz out there but these days at a premium asking price
Keep looking.

A manual Mk2 should be a good bet as they sorted the gearbox issues before that model. I have seldom ever owned a car with matching tyres, other than them being black and round. It is not something that would put me off buying a car. Mk2 Jazzes are common in the UK but Slovenia may be a different situation.

My mk2 runs like new. 10yrs old and 123k miles. Brilliant little cars, happy to recommend.
