Whilst I'm a fully fledged car bore (Alfa Romeo 'special', as per my username) we do need a more practical car in our stable.
When my better half turned 40, back in 2009, she wanted something a little bit more grown up than her previous city hatchbacks. We bought a Honda Jazz. And we were both smitten. It's not an exciting car (it even came with a trilby on the back parcel shelf.....and driving gloves!) But it is so practical - especially the magic seats. There are only the two of us but for holidays etc it's great.

Turning 50, 4 years ago, she treated herself to something more in keeping with a mid-life-crisis.... a Mini Cooper. Which provides the thrills but without much in the way of practicality and we just couldn't bare to part with the Jazz - which has now done 110,000 pretty much faultless miles. (1 battery, 4 bulbs, two front brake discs / pads).
But..... it's just failed it's MOT. Needs a small weld on sills (only rust on car) and new rear brake discs. So, perhaps it's time to move on as it's not worth much £1700 and no doubt other bills are on the horizon. (Clutch etc)

Honda are now going down the hybrid route.

Does anyone have any direct experience with this model 2023 Honda Jazz 1.5 i-MMD Hybrid eCVT SE?
I'd appreciate any anyone's experiences.
Thanks

I posted the OP, there were no immediate replies and then, on Monday, there were 2 posts.
Bit like waiting for a bus - nothing happens and then two at once!


In the meantime, I had re-posted it in the EV thread.
