1961 Jaguar E-Type 4.2L Petrol · BSL 201

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with five clean passes across six tests and only a single minor advisory recorded since 2014. This stability is evidenced by the pass achieved on 8 January 2025, although the vehicle is currently overdue for its next inspection. The recorded mileage of 73,034 miles represents a low annual accumulation rate of approximately 1,124 miles per year over the vehicle's sixty-five year lifespan. Notable gaps in the testing history, specifically between 2017 and 2021 and again between 2021 and 2025, suggest periods where the vehicle may have been off the road. Mechanically, these intervals of inactivity increase the likelihood of perished rubber seals and the potential for stagnation within the braking system. Buyer inspection should prioritise the steering and suspension geometry, specifically concerning the offside rear. The 2021 advisory for an inner edge wear pattern on the offside rear tyre indicates a potential misalignment or wear in the rear suspension bushes or linkages. During a test drive, the vehicle should be monitored for any steering pull or instability, and the current tyre tread must be examined for recurring uneven wear.
