2010 Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel · AE10 MUP

The Jaguar XF presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 29 April 2025 at 93,014 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from May 2022 to May 2024 also passed clean. The April 2024 entry shows a failed test on the same date and mileage as the pass, with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or presentational rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or recurring defects appear across the five-year record. The car has covered roughly 5,813 miles per year since 2010, a low figure for a 16-year-old executive saloon. Mileage moved from 87,135 in May 2022 to 88,727 in May 2023, then 90,258 by April 2024, and 93,014 by April 2025. This equates to around 1,500 to 2,800 miles annually, confirming light use. Such low yearly running often means long stationary periods, which can accelerate rubber perishing, brake caliper seizing, and underbody corrosion even when MOT results stay clean. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely intermittent use. The MOT history flags no structural integrity issues or exhaust emissions failures, but standing time can hide binding calipers and surface rust not caught in a pass. Verify the April 2024 fail reason with DVSA, as the zero-defect record is unusual for a rejection.
