2015 Jaguar F-Type 3.0L Petrol · BX15 AEO

The vehicle presents a complex history where low mileage is offset by recurring mechanical and structural neglect. The most recent test in December 2025 at 40,538 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, following a failure just five days prior. In that November 2025 failure, the tester identified an inoperative engine management light, a failed windscreen washer, and a nearside rear tyre reaching the legal limit. The recurrence of the engine MIL fault in both 2024 and 2025 suggests a persistent electrical issue or sensor malfunction that has not been comprehensively resolved. At 11 years old, the 40,538 miles represent significantly low usage, approximately 3,700 miles per year. This low-use profile often leads to degradation of rubber components and fluid seals rather than mechanical wear. The 2024 records at 38,062 miles flagged corrosion on the rear sub-frame and a transmission oil leak. While the sub-frame was not seriously weakened at that time, the presence of corrosion on a structural component of a high-performance vehicle requires close monitoring to ensure it does not progress. The oil leak, though noted as non-excessive, indicates an active seal failure that should be addressed to prevent escalation. Tyre maintenance shows a consistent pattern of reactive rather than proactive replacement. Between 2021 and 2025, the vehicle repeatedly failed for minimum tread depth and uneven wear, specifically on the inner edges. This typically indicates persistent alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that the previous owners ignored until the MOT deadline. The 2019 record also noted deformed front tyres, which is a common symptom of a vehicle sitting stationary for extended periods. A buyer should verify the current alignment and inspect the integrity of the rear sub-frame to ensure the previously noted corrosion has not compromised structural integrity.
