2011 JAGUAR XJ3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently road‑worthy; the July 2025 MOT at 76,916 mi recorded a PASS with no defects. After a failure in July 2023 that highlighted excessive wear on the nearside rear lower suspension arm bush and the offside rear anti‑roll bar linkage ball joint, the subsequent 2024 and 2025 tests passed without comment, indicating that the identified faults were remedied and the maintenance trend is improving. Mileage averages roughly 5,100 mi per year, well below the typical annual run‑off for a 2011 model. The record shows a steady progression: 61,859 mi in July 2022, 69,370 mi in July 2023, 75,727 mi in August 2024 and 76,916 mi in July 2025. No abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps appear, suggesting consistent, low‑intensity usage rather than periods of heavy loading. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear suspension assembly, confirming that the lower arm bushings and anti‑roll bar linkage ball joints exhibit no play or corrosion. Front brake discs, previously noted as worn and pitted, should be measured for remaining thickness and inspected for scoring that could affect braking performance. Tyre tread should be checked for uniform wear, and a visual survey of the chassis for any emerging rust, especially around suspension mounting points, is advisable. Overall, the MOT history reflects a vehicle that has been maintained with reasonable care, but the prior suspension wear warrants a focused inspection to ensure the remedial work remains effective.
