2002 Jaguar X-Type 2.1L Petrol · KK52 BKK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 13 January 2026 at 64,161 miles. While the car failed on that same day due to an incorrect offside rear direction indicator colour, this was a minor cosmetic defect that was immediately rectified. Beyond this isolated failure, the maintenance trend appears stable with no major mechanical failures or structural advisories recorded in the three successful tests since 2023. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,673 miles per year. The data shows consistent but infrequent use, with only 1,056 miles covered between January 2023 and January 2024, and another 1,103 miles between December 2024 and January 2026. This low usage suggests the car has spent stationary for long periods, which often leads to issues related to the degradation of rubber components and fluid integrity rather than mechanical wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the power steering system and fluid lines due to recurring reports of seepage. The January 2023 test at 61,877 miles flagged slight oil seepage at the nearside front, which evolved into a noted seepage at the nearside front power steering pipe/hose by January 2024 at 62,821 miles. It is essential to verify if these leaks have been professionally sealed or if the subframe remains contaminated with fluid, as persistent leaks in the steering system can lead to sudden pump failure. Given the low mileage and age, an inspection should also check for perished bushes, aged tyres, and corrosion on the brake discs, which are common in vehicles that sit infrequently.
