2007 Jaguar X-Type 2.0L Diesel · CB02 AAB

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on September 4, 2025 at 104,126 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, immediately following a failure just one day prior. This sequence suggests a minor administrative issue or an easily rectified item that was addressed instantly, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Since 2022, the car has passed every annual inspection without recorded advisories or failures, indicating a consistent level of upkeep over the last three years. The mileage profile is notably low for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,480 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the car covered 19,137 miles, maintaining a steady usage pattern of roughly 6,400 miles annually. This low-intensity usage typically reduces the strain on the drivetrain components and braking systems compared to high-mileage examples. However, low mileage on a vehicle of this age can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based components and seals if the car has sat for extended periods between tests. Despite the clean digital MOT history, a physical inspection must focus on areas prone to age-related decay that do not always trigger a failure. A buyer should scrutinise the front suspension wisharms and rubber bushings, which often crack or perish regardless of mileage. Given the vehicle's age, checking for corrosion on sills and wheel arches is essential, as the X-Type is susceptible to structural rust. With the low annual mileage, verifying the condition of the tyres for age cracking and checking fluid levels to ensure they have not become acidic or contaminated due to lack of use is also warranted.
