2019 Jaguar XE 2.0L Diesel · AS14 DJB

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-29 at 51,849 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-09-05 (37,682 miles) and 2023-07-31 (32,905 miles) also passed without issues, though a failed test on 2024-08-15 at 37,680 miles—without recorded defects—suggests potential lapses in upkeep. The absence of recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns in the pass records implies consistent adherence to basic maintenance, though the failed test raises questions about intermittent issues not documented. Mileage progression shows a steady increase, with the car accumulating 14,167 miles between the 2024-09-05 and 2025-08-29 tests—a rate of roughly 1,180 miles per month. This aligns with the average annual figure of 7,407 miles, suggesting regular use rather than prolonged inactivity. However, a sharp jump of 4,775 miles between the 2024-08-15 failed test and the subsequent 2024-09-05 pass raises questions about whether the vehicle was driven extensively during this period, potentially accelerating wear on components like brakes or suspension. No structural corrosion, exhaust emissions, or suspension faults were flagged in the records, but the buyer should inspect for signs of wear on coil springs, suspension bushes, and brake discs, which may not be captured in standard MOT checks. The failed test in 2024-08-15, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of the braking system and exhaust integrity. A physical inspection should focus on tyre tread depth, wheel bearing play, and underbody rust, particularly if the vehicle has been exposed to coastal or de-iced roads. Overall, the MOT history suggests no critical risks but underscores the need for a thorough pre-purchase check.
