2015 Jaguar XE 2.0L Diesel · EX65 HTO

Uneven tyre wear is the primary recurring theme in this vehicle's history, although the roadworthiness record has stabilized with clean passes in September 2024 and September 2025. Prior to this period of stability, the DVSA records frequently flagged tyres worn close to the legal limit, particularly on the outer edges. A single failure was recorded in September 2021 for a non-functional nearside stop lamp, but otherwise, the vehicle has a consistent record of passing its annual inspections. The recorded mileage of 49,413 miles over approximately eleven years reflects a low annual average of roughly 4,492 miles. This usage profile indicates the vehicle has likely experienced long periods of standing or very limited operational use. Mechanically, low-mileage vehicles often exhibit less wear on internal engine components but can be more susceptible to the perishing of rubber seals and suspension bushes, although no such structural or perishable failures have been formally noted in the MOT history. Attention should be paid to the vehicle's alignment and suspension geometry due to the repeated advisories between 2020 and 2023 regarding outer-edge tyre wear on both the front and rear axles. On a test drive, the buyer should monitor for any steering pull or a steering wheel that fails to return to center after a turn. A physical inspection of the current tyre treads is essential to confirm that the previous wear patterns have been rectified and that the tyres are not currently nearing the legal limit. The previous failure of a stop lamp necessitates a thorough check of all external lighting and signal indicators to ensure full functionality. Furthermore, any knocks or vibrations felt through the steering wheel when driving over undulating surfaces should be scrutinized, as these may indicate wear in the suspension linkages or bushes that could eventually lead to the recurring alignment issues seen in the earlier records. Verifying the current state of the tyre sidewalls for cuts, similar to those noted in 2023, is also recommended.
