1999 Jaguar XKR 4.0L Petrol · 60 CM

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 20 April 2026 at 38,951 miles which returned zero defects. The maintenance trend is exceptionally stable, with the last five annual tests passing without a single failure or advisory note. This consistency suggests a vehicle that has either been stored in a controlled environment or subjected to proactive maintenance that prevents minor mechanical issues from reaching a failure threshold. The mileage pattern is remarkably low for a 27-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,443 miles per year. Between June 2018 and April 2026, the car covered only 2,204 miles, indicating long periods of stationary storage. Even the gap between the 2021 and 2026 tests shows minimal use, with only 221 miles accounted for. While this low mileage reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain components, it increases the risk of dry seals, perished component degradation, and fluid breakdown due to inactivity. Despite the clean MOT history, an in-person inspection must focus on components affected by low usage rather than high mileage. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes, ball joints, and shock absorbers for signs of cracking or perishing from age. The brake system requires a thorough check for surface corrosion or seized calipers, which frequently occur when vehicles sit for extended periods. Additionally, the structural integrity of the chassis and exhaust system should be verified to ensure that hidden rust has not developed despite the lack of miles driven.
