2016 Jeep Cherokee 2.2L Diesel · EX16 ADZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 11 December 2025 resulted in a pass at 143,454 miles with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to December 2022, suggesting the car has been maintained to a standard that satisfies basic legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is high for a ten year old vehicle, averaging over 14,000 miles per year. A significant increase in usage occurred between 11 December 2023 and 13 December 2024, where the odometer rose from 100,113 to 129,252 miles. This period of heavy use indicates the vehicle has spent considerable time on the road, likely in long-distance motorway cycles, which generally puts less strain on the engine than urban stop-start driving. Despite the clean MOT history, the high mileage necessitates a physical inspection of high-wear components. The records show no flagged issues with suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs, but these parts naturally degrade over 143,000 miles. A buyer should check for any signs of oil leaks or drivetrain wear that an MOT tester might overlook if the vehicle remains functionally safe. Particular attention should be paid to the chassis and underbody for corrosion, especially given the age of the vehicle. While the DVSA records indicate no structural failures, the lack of any advisories over several years is unusual for a high-mileage Jeep. Verifying the condition of the brake pads and tyre tread depths in person will confirm if the previous owner adhered to a proactive service schedule or merely performed the minimum repairs required to pass the annual test.
