This 2005 Jaguar has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 32,318 miles. The vehicle's SORN status and lack of valid MOT present significant legal and safety risks.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage (84 mi/yr equivalent) before Jun 2017, followed by a 5-year MOT history gap, and then a single test in Jul 2022 with 100,112 mi.
Things to check
- Critical 5-year MOT history gap from Jun 2017 to Jul 2022 — no verifiable roadworthiness.
- Vehicle is currently on SORN status, indicating no current MOT or roadworthiness compliance.
- Mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, with implausibly low early usage (84 mi/yr) and a 5-year unrecorded period.
- Only one MOT test recorded in 21 years of ownership, with no subsequent tests since 2022.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its era.
- No recorded MOT failures or dangerous defects in the single test from Jul 2022.
- The 2.0L diesel engine offers good fuel economy for its age and size.
