2016 Jaguar F-Type 3.0L Petrol · F5 AJM

The 2016 Jaguar F-Type presents a stable and improving mechanical trajectory, culminating in a clean pass on 2025-10-13 at 57,522 miles with zero defects recorded. The 2024-09-23 test at 54,891 miles flagged a coolant leak, but the subsequent 2025 test confirms this rectification, indicating the previous owner addressed the issue promptly. A 2023-10-11 advisory for Nearside Rear tyre sidewall damage at 51,766 miles also appears resolved, as the 2024 and 2025 tests recorded no tyre defects. The maintenance pattern demonstrates consistent rectification of faults rather than a worsening trend. Accumulating 57,522 miles over a decade equates to roughly 5,752 miles annually, marking exceptionally light use for a performance vehicle. The MOT records show steady increments: 44,409 miles in October 2021, 48,920 miles in October 2022, 51,766 miles in October 2023, 54,891 miles in September 2024, and 57,522 miles in October 2025. This consistent mileage accumulation rules out long periods of inactivity, suggesting regular, albeit light, use rather than prolonged standing that could cause seized brakes or dried-out suspension bushes. Despite the clean recent record, a physical inspection must verify the repair quality of the previously flagged coolant leak. Examine the engine bay and beneath the car for any fresh weeping or staining around hose joints, the radiator, and the water pump. The past sidewall damage to the Nearside Rear tyre warrants a close inspection of the vehicle's wheel alignment and suspension geometry, specifically checking for bent arms or worn bushes that could cause uneven tyre wear. Inspect the underside for corrosion on the exhaust system and structural components, as low-mileage vehicles sometimes suffer from surface rust due to short trips failing to fully warm the metal.
