Our Verdict
The 2021 Jaguar F‑Type presents a clean
When viewing the car, ask for any service records that may exist beyond the MOT data to confirm whether routine maintenance has been kept up, especially oil changes and timing belt service if applicable. Compare the asking price against similar 2021 F‑Types with comparable mileage; the above‑average mileage may justify a lower offer. Be aware that the model’s top MOT failure reasons are tyre wear, windscreen wiper issues and suspension arm problems, so verify that these items have not been replaced recently or show signs of imminent failure.
During negotiations, highlight the three clean MOT passes as a positive point, but also use the higher mileage as a lever to seek concessions for potential upcoming wear items. Consider obtaining a pre‑purchase inspection from a Jaguar‑specialist mechanic who can check for hidden issues such as engine knock, clutch wear (if manual) and any electronic glitches that are not captured in MOT results.
The 2.0‑litre petrol engine in the F‑Type typically delivers around 30–35 mpg (combined), which translates to roughly £1,200‑£1,400 of fuel cost per year assuming 10,000 mi of driving at current fuel prices. Road tax for a 2.0‑litre petrol sports car falls into Band H, costing about £210 per annum. Insurance groups for the F‑Type are usually in the 30s to low 40s, leading to an average annual premium of £800‑£1,200 depending on driver profile.
Maintenance on a Jaguar sports model can be higher than mainstream cars; routine servicing, brake pad replacement and tyre wear often amount to £500‑£700 per year. Adding fuel, tax and insurance, the estimated total annual running cost sits in the region of £2,500‑£3,300.
Even though the MOT history shows no failures, focus on the components most frequently flagged for this model. Inspect the tyres for tread depth, uneven wear and sidewall damage, as tyre failures are a top MOT issue for the F‑Type. Check the windscreen wiper blades and operation, ensuring they clear the glass effectively and show no signs of cracking or motor noise.
Examine the suspension arms and related bushings for any play, clunking noises, or visual wear, as suspension arm failures also appear among the common MOT failures. Finally, conduct a basic engine and exhaust check for leaks, unusual noises, and verify that all warning lights on the dashboard are off, since MOT does not capture all possible mechanical problems.
This red 2021 Jaguar F‑Type has passed its MOT in January 2024, 2025 and 2026 with no defects recorded, showing a consistent compliance record. The mileage of 28,737 mi exceeds the model’s average expected mileage of around 20,700 mi for its age, suggesting higher usage. While the vehicle benefits from a clean MOT history, potential wear on components commonly flagged for this model – tyres, windscreen wipers and suspension arms – should be inspected. Overall, the car offers the appeal of a recent sports coupé but carries the usual considerations of a five‑year‑old high‑performance vehicle.
The Jaguar F‑Type has an aggregate MOT pass rate of 92.4%, indicating that the majority of vehicles in the dataset pass their tests, but the model does show recurring issues with tyres, windscreen wipers and suspension arms.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: JAGUAR F-TYPE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Seized Active Exhaust Valves(Moderate)
The valves in the exhaust system that create the signature "pop and crackle" can seize in the open or closed position.
- Supercharger Bearing Noise (V8)(Serious)
The Eaton TVS2300 supercharger on V8 models develops bearing wear in the front nose cone assembly from high-RPM operation and heat cycling. A distinctive whine worsens progressively and can eventually lead to rotor contact if bearings fail completely, requiring a full supercharger rebuild.
- Rear Differential Oil Seal Leak(Moderate)
The rear differential develops oil leaks from failed pinion seals, which can lead to wear of the diff pinion due to insufficient lubrication. If left untreated for too long, a whining noise develops and a full differential replacement may be required.
