Our Verdict

Proceed with extreme caution. While the mileage is impressively low for a 2001 model, the MOT history reveals a chronic pattern of corrosion and neglected safety-critical maintenance.

Prioritise a full mechanical inspection by a Jaguar specialist. The MOT history shows a persistent trend of brake pipe corrosion dating back to 2012, often 'covered in grease' to mask the issue; you must verify if these pipes have been fully replaced or merely patched.

Negotiate the price based on the likelihood of needing a full suspension overhaul. The history reveals repeated failures of anti-roll bar linkages, ball joint dust covers, and shock absorber leaking. Ensure there is documented proof that the 'Dangerous' failures from the 2022 test—specifically the exposed tyre cords and failing parking brake—were professionally rectified.
