1971 JAGUAR E-TYPE5.3L Petrol

The 1971 Jaguar E‑Type recorded a pass on 2 August 2022 at 62,817 miles with no defects noted, indicating a stable maintenance trend and current roadworthiness as of that test; no advisory items were recorded, confirming the vehicle met all statutory requirements at the time of testing. At roughly 1,142 miles per year the mileage is low for a vehicle of this vintage, suggesting the car has spent many years in storage or limited use; the single MOT entry provides no evidence of recent high‑intensity driving or rapid mileage accumulation. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or binding, inspect the condition of the brake calipers and discs for corrosion or uneven wear, examine the chassis and body for structural rust, and verify the exhaust system’s integrity and emissions compliance, as these components are prone to deterioration in classic cars even when MOT records appear clean.
