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

This 2008 Jaguar has 25 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 22,241 miles. While mileage is low and consistent, the pattern of neglect in maintenance is a significant red flag.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 6,371 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defect (Aug 2022) and DANGEROUS brake defect (Sep 2021) indicate severe past neglect.
  • Recurring suspension failures (Sep 2021, Aug 2022) and advisories (Sep 2023, Sep 2024) suggest chronic wear.
  • Multiple major failures for emissions (Sep 2018, Sep 2024) and windscreen (Sep 2024) point to systemic issues.
  • Consistent low mileage (6,371 mi/yr) for an 18-year-old vehicle raises questions about its true usage and maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 9 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until September 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,371 mi/yr) suggests light, non-abusive use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
