2011 Jaguar XF 2.2L Diesel · EA60 CHA

This Jaguar XF has a low mileage profile for its age, averaging roughly 5,300 miles per year, which suggests it has been used sparingly. While low mileage often implies less mechanical wear, it can also mean the vehicle has spent long periods stationary, which can lead to issues like seized components or perished rubber parts. The recent MOT history shows a concerning pattern regarding the braking system and suspension. In early 2025, the car failed due to significant issues including a corroded brake hose ferrule, worn suspension bushes, and uneven brake performance. Although it passed the subsequent retest, the issues with binding brakes, fluctuating pressure, and pitted discs were noted as ongoing concerns. The most recent MOT in January 2026 shows that while the vehicle passed, the condition is trending downwards rather than improving. New advisories have appeared for worn tyres on both rear wheels and a worn nearside rear lower suspension arm bush. This follows previous advisories regarding suspension and brake wear, indicating that components are reaching the end of their service life. The combination of recurring brake issues and emerging suspension wear suggests that the car's mechanical condition is beginning to deteriorate. The low mileage may not have prevented age-related degradation of rubber bushes and braking hardware.
