JAGUAR XK2010 · 5.0L PETROL

This 2010 Jaguar XK has a relatively clean MOT history, with its most recent test passed on 7 January 2026. While the most recent result shows no defects, it follows a failure just one day prior due to a structural tear in the nearside front tyre. The primary recurring pattern in the records is related to tyre condition and maintenance. The 2025 MOT highlighted both sidewall cuts and tread perishing, and the early 2026 failure involved a more serious structural separation. This suggests a potential trend of neglecting tyre replacement or perhaps driving on damaged rubber for too long. The vehicle's mileage of 105,638 miles over 16 years averages roughly 6,600 miles per year. This is typical for its age and suggests the car has not been excessively driven, but it also means it may have spent significant periods stationary. This possibility of under-use aligns with the evidence of tyre perishing and cracking seen in previous tests. The mechanical trend appears stable, with the only non-tyre issue being a failed anti-roll bar linkage in late 2023, which was rectified. Aside from the recent tyre issues, there are no indications of worsening structural or mechanical decay in the MOT data.
