2015 Jaguar XF 2.0L Diesel · AF65 MGU

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the exception of a single dangerous failure in March 2024 involving a structural tyre tear on the offside front inner. This was resolved immediately to achieve a pass on the same day, and the subsequent tests in March 2025 and August 2026 were completed with no defects or advisories recorded. The recorded mileage of 78,519 miles over an eleven year period represents an average annual accumulation of roughly 7,138 miles. This is a typical usage profile for this class of vehicle, suggesting that the mechanical components have been subjected to regular use without the excessive wear associated with high-mileage examples or the stagnation risks linked to prolonged inactivity. Attention should be directed toward the braking system due to the advisory for wearing front outer brake pads noted in March 2024. Although the 2025 and 2026 tests were clean, it is important to confirm whether these consumables were replaced. During the test drive, feel for any pedal judder and listen for metallic grinding or squealing during deceleration, which would indicate that the pads have reached their wear limits or that the brake discs are scored. The previous dangerous failure regarding tyre separation necessitates a thorough visual inspection of the current tyre sidewalls for any signs of bulging or cracking. Furthermore, given the weight of the XF chassis, the buyer should listen for knocks or thumps when driving over speed bumps or uneven road surfaces, as these symptoms often precede the failure of suspension bushes or linkages, components that can wear on this model regardless of the current MOT status.
