2013 JAGUAR E-TYPE5.0L Petrol

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT in July 2025. While it did fail on the same day, the issue was limited to a non-functioning nearside front seat belt, which was rectified immediately. The overall condition trend appears to be improving or stable. A significant gap exists in the records between 2013 and 2023. The 2013 test was a pass but included a long list of advisories, including structural corrosion on both sides, play in the rear wheel bearings, steering wheel free play, a noisy and leaking exhaust, and deteriorated suspension rubber bushes. However, the tests from 2023 through 2025 have been remarkably clean, suggesting that these older mechanical and structural defects may have been addressed. The recorded mileage of 43,079 is very low for a sixty-year-old vehicle, averaging only 718 miles per year. While this indicates the car has not suffered from heavy hard use, such low mileage often implies long periods of standing. This can lead to specific issues such as perished rubber components or seized parts, though the recent clean MOTs suggest the car is currently in a roadworthy state. A buyer should prioritize a thorough inspection of the vehicle's structure.
