JAGUAR XE2017 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the recent maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While it passed its most recent test in October 2025 at 67,607 miles, this followed a failure just five days prior at 67,540 miles. This failure highlighted critical safety issues, including exposed cords on the nearside front inner tyre and ineffective windscreen wipers. The recurrence of these issues suggests the owner only addresses mechanical defects when forced by an MOT failure rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. The recorded mileage of 67,607 miles over a nine-year period averages to approximately 7,500 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a luxury saloon. The data shows a consistent usage pattern between September 2023 and October 2024, where the vehicle covered roughly 4,700 miles. However, the jump of 7,000 miles between October 2024 and October 2025 shows a slight increase in annual travel, which correlates with the accelerated wear observed on the braking system and rubber components. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the suspension and braking assembly. The October 2024 test flagged thin rear brake pads and an illuminated wear indicator light, indicating that the braking system was neglected until it reached a critical state. Furthermore, the 2025 failure regarding a nearside rear tyre worn on the edge suggests potential wheel alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that have not yet been rectified. The leaking wiper washer system noted in the late 2025 tests remains a minor concern that should be checked to prevent damage to the pump or reservoir.
