2016 Jaguar XE 3.0L Petrol · GM16 ACJ

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean roadworthiness status at its most recent inspection. The March 2026 test at 43,748 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a similarly clean pass in March 2025 at 37,244 miles. This recent history suggests that previous mechanical issues have been addressed and the vehicle is currently maintaining a consistent standard of upkeep. The mileage pattern indicates very light usage for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,375 miles per year. The data shows steady, incremental growth from 14,067 miles in August 2019 to the current 43,748 miles. This low annual mileage often correlates with less wear on drivetrain components, though the gaps between tests and the low usage frequency can sometimes lead to secondary issues like tyre perishing or battery degradation. Historical records show a trend of consumable wear rather than serious mechanical failure. Between 2020 and 2022, the tester repeatedly flagged perishing or cracking tyres, which is a common symptom of vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods. A failure in March 2023 at 27,087 miles due to mismatched tyre sizes on the nearside rear axle indicates a temporary lapse in basic maintenance, though this was rectified quickly. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and rubber components. The March 2024 test at 31,881 miles identified pitting and scoring on both front inner brake discs. While the vehicle passed subsequent tests, the condition of the discs and pads should be verified to ensure no uneven wear or binding has developed. Given the history of tyre perishing, a close examination of the sidewalls for age-related cracking is also advised to ensure the current set is fit for purpose.
