AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2004 Jaguar has 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 29,159 miles. The vehicle has been off-road for a significant period, and its low mileage for its age raises serious concerns about its maintenance and true condition.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Nov 2015, averaging only 45 miles/year, which is a significant anomaly for a 22-year-old car.

Things to check

  • MOT expired 2018-07-19; vehicle is currently not road legal.
  • Six major failures across 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2017.
  • Five major failures for tyres (2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015) and brakes (2008, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015).
  • Consistent advisories for brakes, tyres, and suspension across multiple years.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe vehicle.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a consistent, albeit low, annual mileage trajectory.
