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

This 2002 Jaguar has 21 MOT tests on record with a 57% pass rate and 26,480 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with these severe issues, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging 3,259 miles/year, with a critical 4-year gap (Oct 2015-Jan 2020) where no MOT tests were recorded, indicating unverified mileage during that period.

Things to check

  • Major structural corrosion on offside front cab/chassis (Dec 2022 FAIL).
  • Major seatbelt anchorage corrosion on offside front inner sill (Jan 2022 FAIL).
  • Major seatbelt anchorage corrosion on nearside front inner sill (Jan 2022 FAIL).
  • Major bodywork corrosion on nearside front (Jan 2022 FAIL).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 9 historical failures
