2006 Jaguar S-Type 3.0L Petrol · BD06 UEY

The 2006 Jaguar S-Type is presently roadworthy, having passed the 22 October 2025 MOT at 119,481 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past five years. The vehicle has accumulated roughly 5,974 miles per year since its 2006 registration, a figure below the average for a 20‑year‑old car and suggesting limited use or extended periods of inactivity. Mileage increments show steady annual testing: from 109,441 miles in November 2021 to 112,745 miles in November 2022, then to 113,709 miles in November 2023, 117,176 miles in November 2024, and finally 119,481 miles in October 2025, with no abrupt surges. A buyer should therefore focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as repeated use of the brakes can cause binding calipers and worn brake discs; the MOT history shows no recorded brake defects, but close visual inspection of the discs, pads and caliper movement is advisable. Particular attention must be given to structural rust around the wheel arches, chassis rails and underbody, as well as the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, since the vehicle’s low annual mileage may have allowed moisture to accumulate in hidden areas. Tyre tread and wiper blade condition are also worth checking, though they represent minor wear compared with the mechanical components that could affect long‑term reliability.
