Dave_Q Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Yo shitters,There may be interest in this, or not.My wife is about to buy a new car so her current one is surplus to requirements.2005 Honda Jazz SE SportMOT April103000 miles.Has been unfailingly reliable but has a couple of minor issues, exhaust sounds like its blowing and there is a clunk of some sort reported from the rear end which has never been there when I drive it. And it's slow, outrageously so, possible EGR issue? Never investigated. Scrape on nsr door and has had paint in the past on rear bumper / quarters.Obviously nobody wants it as a px, anyone keen at £300 or £5 roffle? Ideal for station car, wife or teenage child or anyone else who needs a car but doesn't really like driving.Roffle list:123 bangernomics4 rainagain56 yes oui si7 snagglepuss89 gm10 gst11 snagglepuss12 njgleeds13 grumpycat14 gm15 Iamgroot16 ohdearme17 snagglepuss18 Saabnut19 Sri0520 Saabnut21 Alanism22 Fraz2324 the judge2526 Jim Bell27 snagglepuss28 gadgetgricey29 Sri0530 gadgetgricey3132 Jim Bell33 Unclefester34 snagglepuss35 sporty-shite36 KruJoe37 gst38 Flat439 njgleeds4041 bangernomics42 yes oui si43 snagglepuss44 Ohdearme45 Alanism46 snagglepuss47 gadgetgricey48 Unclefester49 Jim Bell50 ohdearme51 bangernomics52 sporty-shite53 Sri0554 njgleeds55 gst56 gm57 GeordieinExile58 snagglepuss59 snagglepuss ruffgeezer, UltraWomble and DVee8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Q Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Sorry for limited info, was posting from the pub. Its a mk1 so 1.3 petrol, there were no mk1 diesels in the UK AFAIK. Not sure if its actually broken or if they're just all like that, it is slow to accelerate but will achieve 70, but may not stay there uphill.

bangernomics Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Asking for a friend, would a townmate fit in the back? Incidentally it looked clean enough when I collected the Multipla from Dave. And £300 is a bargain compared to some ropey faceache purchase. Is it cheapo tax? Cavcraft, Dave_Q, Iamgroot and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Q Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Townmate is probably a no, the space would be massive with the seats folded down but not long or high enough I would say. Here are some pictures from today showing scrapes and also the paint, not sure how well it comes out but both rear quarters/doors have some milky patches like overspray or a badly blended repair. The plate on it will be removed before sale, the original plate I think was DK05ZNL. Tax is cheap but not that cheap, think its about £140pa due to the relatively high carbon dioxides. Location is Brighouse, West Yorkshire, J25 M62, HD6 postcode. We have failed to buy a new car today as one was sold and one misdescribed, but we still intend to buy one before the MOT runs out on this and not bother putting it in for a test. It probably wouldn't need much/anything, but I reckon with the scrape etc we would struggle to get more than about £500 from the public even with 12 months test so the £50+ to retest it is not adding value for us given available time/care levels.

Cavcraft Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Well up for a decent amount of tickets for this at £5 a throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Q Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Should probably also add that these things are well underrated little cars, they really should be the universal answer to "what car should I get for my mate who doesn't car" UnburstableMassive inside, small outsideDecent on fuelEasy to drive and park The main issue with them is they are not the best driving experience. The steering and pedals feel like you are on a PlayStation 1, before they invented force feedback. So it's light and inoffensive to use but something of a letdown for Ms_Q after an Alfa 147. I can really see why they are the default choice for someone who doesn't care about cars and just needs something small, cheap and practical. We are only selling because despite ticking every box for her requirements, she just doesn't like driving it, and keep losing it in car parks.

GrumpiusMaximus Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Chap over the road has an 05 plate Jazz and I secretly admire its total commitment to being an car every day. No tickets here but a lot of hope for a speedy roffle! Dave_Q 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiC Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 The main issue with them is they are not the best driving experience.Depends what people want from their driving experience. The motoring press want something that you can go at lightspeed on each corner with every lump and bump felt through the steering wheel. However the average owner of a Jazz wants a car so easy to park you don't really even have to try. Hitting a pot hole doesn't upset the Labrador sleeping in the boot. Cornering is done slow enough to not cause enough G's, keeping the tissue box on the dashboard stationary - thus no worries about suspension having to work hard. For those people, the Jazz offers the best driving experience. Dave_Q and Marm Toastsmith 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Q Posted March 10, 2019 Author Share Posted March 10, 2019 Any pics of how miserable the inside is ? and engine bay ?Yeah will get some when it's light. Being the sport it has "sports" seats, think they are black or grey. Despite being a child wagon it's been mucked out semi-regularly so is OK on that front.
