Should you buy a used Honda Jazz I-vtec Ex?

A typical Honda Jazz I-vtec Ex owner drives around 5,263 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres. If it's well below, the vehicle may have been sitting unused — check for perished rubber, corroded discs and stale fluids.
