Honda Jazz named UK’s most reliable used car
October 13, 2009 by Matt Brogan
The Honda Jazz has been named as the UK’s most reliable car according to new research from insurance specialist, Warranty Direct.
Data compiled from Warranty Direct’s 50,000 UK policies on four- to seven-year old cars shows that Jazz models were the most reliable in the survey period.
According to the Warranty Direct Reliability Index, which measures all factors of a repair including cost and frequency, the Jazz is almost six times more reliable than the average car. The Honda Jazz has an index of 20, compared to the average car index of 112 (analysed across 36 manufacturers).
“At Honda we believe it’s essential that every customer can rely on their car to get from point A to point B,” said Honda Australia’s Managing Director, Mr. Yasuhide Mizuno. “Honda’s commitment to the customer doesn’t end once they leave the showroom. Honda vehicles are designed to provide reliable service, so drivers can enjoy the Honda experience over many years.”
Since its debut in October 2002, the Honda Jazz has sold more than 63,000 units in Australia. The economical light hatch is one of Honda’s most popular models in Australia.

Not a bad result for Honda but it was competing mainly against Ford Focus’ and Opel Astra’s.
But it did beat Toyota but maybe they don’t sell as many there as here, The Brit’s really like their Euro cars and look down at Japanese cars.
Does anyone know if UK bound Jazz’s are made in Japan, Thailand or somewhere else?
Vti07,
Until this month UK bound Honda Jazz have been built in Japan. Now, they are built at Honda’s plant at Swindon.
