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

This 2003 Jaguar has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 25,528 miles. While mileage is low for its age, the vehicle's age and recurring issues present significant risks.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,589 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a 2015 service gap is noted.

Things to check

  • Recurring major brake failures (Sep 2011, Sep 2012, Sep 2013) and suspension failures (Sep 2011, Sep 2012, Sep 2013) indicate systemic neglect.
  • Multiple recurring advisories for tyres (Aug 2006, Sep 2008, Sep 2009) and windscreen (Aug 2006, Sep 2008, Sep 2009) suggest chronic wear.
  • The 2015 MOT gap is a significant concern, as it may indicate periods of off-road use or lack of maintenance.
  • The vehicle is 23 years old with low mileage, meaning accumulated wear and potential age-related component degradation.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,589 mi/yr) for its age, suggesting light use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a valid Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017), indicating good structural integrity.
