2008 Jaguar XF 2.7L Diesel · AC08 TFV

The Jaguar XF presents as roadworthy on the strength of its most recent test. The tester passed the car on 20 December 2024 at 153,146 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend across the available history. The earlier failure on 25 August 2021 at 153,011 miles listed no defects, and the vehicle passed two days later on 27 August 2021 at 153,013 miles, suggesting an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The recorded mileage shows an unusually flat pattern for an 18-year-old vehicle. Between August 2021 and December 2024 the odometer advanced only 133 miles, from 153,013 to 153,146. Annual average across the car's life sits near 8,500 miles, but the near-static reading over the last three years implies extended periods off the road or a possible odometer irregularity that a buyer should verify against service receipts. Given the sparse record and clean recent pass, no recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion faults appear in the data. The absence of advisories at the 2024 test means tyres, brake discs, coil springs, and structural integrity carried no flagged concerns at that point. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of subframe corrosion, suspension bushes, and binding calipers, as a 2008 Jaguar at this mileage is prone to age-related wear not always captured in a pass result. The two-day fail-pass sequence in August 2021 warrants a check of the original test refusal reason with the DVSA, even though no defects were logged. Confirming continuous MoT coverage and matching the mileage to genuine service history remains the prudent step before purchase.
