Hi all
I am looking to buy a 2006 Honda Jazz 1.4 i-DSI SE 5dr with 106,000 miles on the clock. It is priced at £1,995. It looks pretty clean and tidy and comes with full service history and has only had 2 owners from new. The dealer will put a full 12 months MOT on the car and although it is too old to put an RAC warranty on he has said he will cover it with a warranty off of his own back. He has also told me that he provides a courtesy HPI check too.
The MOT history looks pretty good from what I can tell...

Just wondered if I could get a few different thoughts on this please as I have no idea what to look for when buying cars. I have heard of Honda's legendary reliability and this is what has drawn me towards this particular vehicle.
So if anybody could help me out I would most definitely appreciate it.
Does this sound like a good buy or is it well overpriced? Also any particular things that I should be aware of to look out for when inspecting and test driving?
Thanks to you all in advance.
Regards
Prime.
