This 2002 Jaguar has 12 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 16,804 miles. While it has a long MOT record, the pattern of neglect and mileage anomalies demands significant caution.
The mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage (1,194 mi/yr equivalent) before Jan 2008, followed by unusually high jumps (38,299 mi/yr equivalent) before Jan 2010 and Jan 2011, indicating inconsistent and potentially fraudulent usage.
Things to check
- Mileage anomalies: Suspiciously low usage (1,194 mi/yr) before Jan 2008, then unusually high jumps (38,299 mi/yr) before Jan 2010 and Jan 2011.
- Recurring brake failures: 4 major failures and 9 related advisories across multiple tests, indicating chronic neglect.
- Recurring suspension failures: 1 major failure and 7 related advisories, showing consistent wear.
- Unexplained 3-year MOT gap: No tests recorded between Jan 2012 and Feb 2013, a significant red flag for maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Long MOT history: 12 tests recorded, showing continuous use and testing.
- Immediate retests: All 3 failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day.
- Recent clean pass: The vehicle passed its last MOT on 2014-07-11, indicating it was roadworthy at that time.
