2002 Jaguar X-Type 2.1L Petrol · AD52 FVJ

The Jaguar X-Type presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 17 December 2025 at 84,717 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable on paper, though the surrounding history shows a peculiar pattern of test failures with no listed defects. The vehicle cleared its final retest cleanly, indicating any administrative or minor pre-check issues were resolved without mechanical intervention. Recorded mileage sits at 84,717 against a 2002 build, averaging roughly 3,530 miles per year. The car covered just 5,911 miles between the April 2024 failure at 78,806 miles and the December 2025 pass, confirming very light use for its age. Such low annual accumulation often masks standing-time degradation, yet the sparse record shows no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion across any entry. The three 2024 failures at 78,797 and 78,806 miles, followed by passes with no defects logged, suggest documentation or presentation faults rather than worn components. A buyer should still verify the vehicle physically, as MOT entries with no defects recorded do not capture latent issues like damp coil springs, tired suspension arms, or early structural rust typical of a 24-year-old Jaguar. Given the clean December 2025 result and low mileage, the X-Type appears lightly used with basic upkeep maintained. Inspect brake discs for lip and pitting from disuse, check underside subframes for corrosion, and confirm the 4x4 drivetrain has no binding calipers or worn propshaft couplings before purchase.
