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 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 55,564 miles. However, the complete absence of any MOT history prior to 2018, combined with a 22-year-old vehicle, makes this a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows high annual usage of 13,900 miles/year, with a single MOT test in August 2018 recording 203,978 miles, indicating significant wear and tear.
Things to check
- No MOT history available for 2004–2018, a critical red flag for a 22-year-old vehicle.
- Single MOT test in August 2018 with 203,978 miles is unusually high for its age.
- High annual mileage (13,900 miles/year) suggests heavy use and accelerated wear.
- The 2019-08-30 MOT expiry date is in the past, indicating the vehicle is currently not road legal.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its era.
- No recorded failures or dangerous defects in the single MOT test from 2018.
- The single advisory for a worn tyre in August 2018 was immediately addressed, showing prompt owner attention.
