2007 Jaguar X-Type 2.2L Diesel · BT07 ABF

The Jaguar X-Type demonstrates a remarkably clean recent MOT history, culminating in a clear pass on 20th March 2026 at 117,982 miles with zero defects recorded. This clean sheet follows an identical fault-free pass on 1st April 2025 at 105,870 miles, which itself immediately succeeded a administrative failure on 18th March 2025 at 105,866 miles. This maintenance trajectory shows an improving trend regarding test preparation, as the vehicle has transitioned from a historical failure directly into consecutive first-time passes without a single advisory noted across the past three recorded examinations. At approximately 19 years of age with 117,982 miles on the odometer, the vehicle averages roughly 6,210 miles per year, positioning its usage squarely within typical parameters for a British touring saloon of this era. The mileage accumulation has remained remarkably consistent across the historical timeline, progressing from 86,009 miles in June 2023 to 96,948 miles in June 2024, before accelerating slightly to cover approximately twelve thousand miles leading up to the April 2025 test. Such steady usage implies the car has spent very little time languishing in storage, which helps mitigate the risks of seized components or degraded fluid integrity often associated with prolonged periods of inactivity. Prospective buyers should approach the physical inspection by prioritizing components that traditionally suffer on the Ford-CD132 platform underpinning this model, despite the absence of formal test advisories. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and lower control arms warrant a thorough ramp inspection for premature rubber perishing and structural subframe corrosion, particularly along the floorpan and rear sills. Furthermore, checking the brake discs for scoring and verifying the operational status of the handbrake cables will ensure that consumable hardware matches the pristine standard set by the recent administrative record.
