This 2012 Jaguar has 18 MOT tests on record with a 61% pass rate and 28,536 miles. While many of these were addressed, the repeated nature of these faults suggests ongoing wear and potential future costs.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,519 miles/year, with a notable dip in 2020 (1,805 miles) followed by a return to normal usage, showing no signs of odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension arm ball joint failures (Dec 2018 advisory, Nov 2022 major failure).
- Recurring steering rack gaiter issues (Dec 2021 PRS, Nov 2022 major failure).
- Recurring brake system failures (Dec 2019 advisory, Nov 2023 major failure).
- Dangerous brake failure recorded on 2015-10-27, though later resolved.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until November 2026, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage (9,519 miles/year) with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- All major and dangerous defects were immediately rectified and passed subsequent retests.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
