2018 Jaguar F-Pace 2.0L Diesel · BK18 GCZ

The 2026‑01‑22 MOT at 73,236 miles passed with no defects, confirming the Jaguar F‑Pace remains roadworthy; the maintenance record shows a stable trend, as the only previous failures involved a headlamp alignment issue in 2021 and a single headlamp malfunction in 2024, both of which were corrected before subsequent tests. Mileage has climbed from 25,432 miles in February 2021 to 73,236 miles in January 2026, averaging roughly 14,600 miles per year, which is higher than the typical 9,000‑mile annual usage for an eight‑year‑old vehicle; the increase slows noticeably after 2024, with the 2024‑01‑30 tests showing a rapid 1,005‑mile jump within the same day, indicating a prompt remedial retest rather than a sustained usage surge. Recurring advisories centre on near‑side rear oil leaks, which the 2021 test described as non‑excessive, and on tyre condition, with cuts and perishing noted in 2021; these suggest the owner has addressed minor wear but should verify the differential output seal, blanking cap and tyre sidewall integrity during a physical inspection. A buyer should therefore examine suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, check the chassis and wheel‑arch areas for structural rust, and confirm that the headlamp alignment and functionality are correct, as these components represent the most likely sources of future mechanical concern.
