2017 Jaguar F-Type 5.0L Petrol · 1 XPM

A remarkably unbroken run of clean test passes defines the official MOT history of this Jaguar F-Type, culminating in an unblemished pass on January 8, 2026. Across six recorded inspections spanning from November 2020, the only formal notes ever logged against the vehicle occurred during its 2020 test regarding edge wear on the front and rear tyres. Beyond that single instance, the testing record shows zero structural corrosion, mechanical defects, or lighting failures, pointing to a stable trajectory of roadworthiness where the vehicle has consistently met statutory standards without chronic or recurring fault patterns. With a total of 45,394 miles accumulated over its nine-year lifespan, the vehicle averages roughly 5,044 miles per year, establishing a distinctly low-mileage usage profile. This restrained mileage rate means the mechanical assemblies have experienced less cumulative fatigue than typical examples of this age, though buyers should still verify that this light use did not involve prolonged periods of standing between tests, which can occasionally hasten the degradation of rubber suspension bushes and exhaust hangers. The inspection cadence has remained regular and uninterrupted, confirming that the car has seen consistent annual deployment rather than being subjected to extended off-road storage. Given the historical tyre wear advisories noted on the front and rear axles, a physical inspection of the currently fitted rubber is essential to assess tread depth uniformity, shoulder wear patterns, and overall age-related cracking. During the static check, inspect the alloy wheels for inner-rim damage and verify that the high-performance braking system shows even pad wear and unwarped discs, as sports cars of this calibre often endure heavy thermal cycling. Pay close attention to the underbody protection and auxiliary components during this inspection, ensuring that fluid containment is intact around the engine and differential housings without any weeping seals. On the dynamic road test, evaluate the ride quality and handling response across varying road surfaces, listening carefully for any unwanted knocks, thuds, or squeaks from the double-wishbone suspension linkages over rough tarmac or speed bumps. The steering should track straight and true under both acceleration and heavy braking, with no lateral pull or excessive steering wheel vibration that might indicate tracking misalignment or unbalanced wheels. Finally, ensure the supercharged powertrain delivers power smoothly through the transmission without hesitation, and confirm that all electronic driver aids, stability systems, and lighting controls operate correctly throughout the journey.
