Graham Atherton, Cheshire

Honda Jazz 1.2 base model 2006

Brilliant car, cheap to run. Has returned 48mpg over a combination of 5 - 10 mile daily trips and monthly 500 mile motorway journeys totalling 38.000 miles over 30 months. Nothing has broken, never failed to start and it even cleans up well after a couple of weeks of my 18 month old son daubing various unnamed substances all over the rear seats. It has been suggested that I upgrade to a bigger car next year with more comfort for rear passengers - a Civic perhaps - but with fuel prices the way they are 68mpg from the new model Jazz sounds very attractive.

Honda Jazz 1.4 SE 2003

I bought the jazz from the local Honda dealer, I have been very impressed with the Jazz. For me the clincher were the back seats - that is the base of the seats can be raised up, the amount of interior space is more like a class above, my previous car was an Astra 94 model and the boot space was very similar to the Astra but the jazz is a lot smaller outside. People sitting in the jazz for the first time comment on how much room there is. Running costs, road tax £120, insurance group 3 and petrol costs are very low. Making visits to the petrol station less frequent than the previous car. The Jazz has idsi petrol engine with vvt the engine uses 8 spark plugs, this results in 50mpg, the same economy as a 1.0 litre but the performance of a 1.4. The petrol tank has been moved forward instead of the rear which frees up load space. Equipment wise the jazz is very comprehensive, ac electric windows all round electric sunroof, cd player, alloy wheels all of these enhances the drivers enjoyment. The only negative is the ride its bit harsh on poor roads, and tyre noise is loud too but this is due to my car being one of the early model, and i have changed the tyres to Nexen tyres these are a lot better then the Yokoma which were on before. I had a courtesy car from the Honda dealer a jazz 08 and the ride was a lot better, engine performance wise i go for the 1.4 anytime, as its ideal for cruising on the motorway. For servicing costs I pay into a servicing plan monthly, a reasonable £15 per month, to which all the consumable items and labour are covered which to me is a good deal. If i did not pay into the plan I would have been paying up to £450 so its best to enrol into the service plan, another aspect of Jazz ownership is that it holds its resale value very well.

Honda Jazz 1.4 SE 2003

Marilyn Burford, England Honda Jazz 2007. I have the diesel engine version which is pretty noisy on starting and takes about 5 miles to get going. As I only do about 10 miles a day this is a big draw back. The children like it however and they call it the jazz mobile. I don’t know what car you are driving Marilyn but Honda have never sold a Jazz with a diesel engine - your two star rating for a non-existant model has prevented the Jazz getting an average of 5 stars in this forum - well done.

Honda Jazz 1.4 SE 2003

I’ve had Honda cars before and thought I was downsizing to a Jazz, but it’s a lot bigger inside than people think. Can get two sets of golf clubs with two folding trollies and holiday luggage for two in the boot without folding seats down. Normally get about 55mpg commuting 25 miles each way to work, and about 45mpg around town. Smooth engine with torque coming in low down in rpm range, tractable and easy to drive without having to change gear too often, the gearchange is light and direct. Easy to park with very small turning circle and light steering for parking, but stiffens up as speed rises, fairly quiet ride (depends on tyres fitted) and can hold conversation easily at 70mph.

Hello. Does anyone out there drive a Honda Jazz or know anyone who does? I work for a company in London who is putting together a short promotional documentary film for Honda, and we’re looking for contributors to chat about their car and their passions/interests, and how the two come together. If anyone does have a Jazz and would be interested in contributing then please give me a shout - my name’s Tom and i can be contacted either on hondafilm2008@yahoo.co.uk or on 0207 194 7056... Thanks for reading this, Tom.

Honda Jazz 1.4cc 2007

Best car I ever owned, beats my previous Volvo 440 hands down. It took 3 adults and myself as driver on a journey through France just after I purchased it; with four cases in boot. We averaged 48.5 MPH over 1,875 miles. Amazing around town; about 46 mph, on longer journeys with two we average 49.2 mph... Its upright seating is extremely comfortable which means I can drive further without have to get out and stretch my poor old legs. If the Jazz has a downside it’s a harder ride than my old Volvo. Finally, it will be my car of choice for years to come.

Honda Jazz 2007 1.4 i-DSI SE

This is quite simply a wonderful car - it was Japan's 2002 Car of the Year and I can see why. The driving position is excellent; the interior is well constructed with everything where you would expect it. One thing that pleased and surprised me was the generous amount of loading space once the back seats had been lowered, carrying flat-pack furniture was not something that I thought would be possible when I purchased the Jazz but it has proven remarkably adept in this area. I wanted long-term reliability from my new car - reports suggested that this is exactly what the Jazz would give me and that it has done. This is a well constructed, green and stylish car.

Honda Jazz 1.4i SE CVT-7 2004

I’ve had this car from new and it has been the best car I’ve ever owned. It’s been totally reliable and I still enjoy driving it after all this time. I will be looking to change my car soon and will have no hesitation heading straight for my local Honda dealer and getting another Jazz. Brilliant car, loads of space for size of the car and very capable over short and very long (France and back) journeys.

Honda Jazz 1.4i-DSI SE 2007

Excellent car, out-classes all of it’s rivals. A brillant supermini, featuring fold flat rear seats for clever storage solution. Great on the motorway, quiet and acceleration is fantastic. Residuals are great too.
