Our Verdict
A solid recommendation for those seeking a high-performance diesel SUV with a consistent MOT record. The vehicle shows a stable history of passing tests without recorded defects over the last five years.
When inspecting this 2.9L diesel F-PACE, focus on verifying the service history to complement the clean MOT record. While the MOTs show no defects, these tests are snapshots in time and do not confirm regular oil changes or fluid maintenance, which are vital for large-capacity diesel engines.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at 73,121 miles, it has exceeded the statistical annual average for this model. Check for any signs of uneven tyre wear or brake pad thinning, as these are the most common failure points for the F-PACE model aggregate data.
Running this 2993cc diesel engine will involve significant costs compared to smaller SUVs. Fuel economy will depend heavily on driving style, but expect typical diesel SUV figures. Insurance groups for Jaguar F-PACE models tend to be mid-to-high, so obtain a quote specific to the AF66FCO registration.
Maintenance costs for a premium brand like Jaguar can be higher than mainstream manufacturers. While the MOT history shows no recent failures, be prepared for common wear-and-tear items like tyres and brakes, which are the top failure reasons for this model type.
Given the model aggregate data, pay close attention to the tyres and brake pads during your test drive. The MOT history for this specific vehicle has been defect-free, but the aggregate data suggests these are the most frequent areas where F-PACEs fail tests.
Additionally, inspect the suspension components, specifically the ball joints, as this is a known top failure reason for this model. Ensure there are no unusual noises when turning the steering wheel or driving over uneven surfaces, despite the clean MOT record for this specific unit.
This 2016 Jaguar F-PACE, finished in red, has covered 73,121 miles since its first registration in October 2016. The MOT history is notably clean, with five consecutive passes between 2021 and 2025 showing no recorded defects. The mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 8,628 miles per year, but the consistency of the testing record is a positive indicator.
The F-PACE shows an 88.5% average MOT pass rate across nearly 50,000 analysed vehicles, with tyres, brake pads, and ball joints being the primary failure points.

Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: JAGUAR F-PACE
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Turbocharger Failure (2.0d)(Serious)
Premature turbo failure is common on the 2.0L diesel, often caused by the same oil dilution issue that affects the timing chain.
- Timing Chain Failure (2.0d Ingenium)(Serious)
The 2.0 diesel Ingenium engine in the F-Pace is prone to timing chain stretch and failure, the same issue affecting the XE, XF and E-Pace. Oil dilution from interrupted DPF regenerations combined with weak chain guides cause premature wear. If the chain snaps, it destroys the engine.
- Water Pump Failure (3.0SC & 5.0 V8)(Serious)
The water pumps on 3.0 supercharged V6 and 5.0 V8 F-Pace models are prone to premature failure, sometimes lasting less than 20,000 miles. Coolant enters the bearing housing and corrodes it, causing the impeller shaft seal to leak. The small coolant pipe connecting to the pump also has fragile plastic connectors that break on removal.
