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

This 2012 Jaguar has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 98,803 miles. While it has a long MOT, the history of repeated failures and advisories on critical systems warrants significant caution.

The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 12,434 miles per year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles, with a notable 2022 service gap.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension arm advisories across 6 tests (e.g., May 2026) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 9 tests (e.g., May 2026) suggest a history of neglect.
  • Recurring registration plate lamp failures across 6 tests (e.g., May 2026) point to a persistent electrical fault.
  • High annual mileage (12,434 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr) will accelerate wear.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Vehicle has a long, valid MOT until June 2027, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
