JAGUAR XKR2007 · 4.2L PETROL

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status following a clean MOT pass in August 2025 at 98,960 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of recent improvement, as the owner has addressed the mechanical issues flagged in previous years. While the history reveals a pattern of wear on consumable components, the absence of any defects in the most recent test suggests the immediate mechanical state is being kept up to standard for road use. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 98,960 miles represents a low annual annual average of approximately 5,200 miles. This usage pattern is consistent across the records, showing a gap of 9,410 miles between November 2022 and September 2023, and another 3,063 miles between September 2023 and August 2024. Such low mileage often indicates that age-related degradation of rubber components and seals is a more significant risk than high-mileage engine wear and tear. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the suspension geometry and braking system. The November 2022 test flagged severely deteriorated suspension rod ball joint dust covers on both rear sides, and the September 2023 record highlighted uneven tyre wear across all four wheels. While these may have been rectified, the buyer must check for remaining play in the ball joints or bushings that could cause further premature tyre scrubbing. Additionally, the August 2024 report noting thin brake pads and worn discs necessitates a physical check of the current friction material to ensure the components were actually replaced since that inspection.
