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 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 90,716 miles. The recurring major failures and advisories for critical safety systems, combined with a 16-year-old vehicle, make this a high-risk purchase.

A critical mileage anomaly is present: 90,716 miles in Feb 2011, then only 77,142 miles in Mar 2012, indicating possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Feb 2011 (90,716 mi) and Mar 2012 (77,142 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • No

Working in its favour

  • No specific MOT failures or advisories for the most recent test in Jan 2024.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record.
  • Consistent annual mileage of 9,330 miles/yr (pre-2021) aligns with typical UK usage.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded in the latest test.
