2006 Jaguar XJ 4.2L Petrol · FL06 VJC

The Jaguar XJ presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 October 2025 at 140,434 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. The vehicle shows no worsening pattern and no recurring advisories across the available history. Annual mileage has averaged close to 7,000 miles, consistent with typical use for a 2006 saloon. The records show steady accumulation: 111,024 miles in October 2021, 119,927 by September 2022, 126,390 in October 2023, 132,332 in October 2024, and 140,434 in October 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear, and the clean sheets across every entry indicate the previous keeper kept the car to a standard that avoided even minor consumable flags such as tyres or wipers. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection beneath the body and chassis. The MOT record lists no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, but a 20-year-old Jaguar of this type is prone to subframe rust and degraded suspension bushes that a visual test may not capture if not flagged. Check the coil springs, brake discs, and exhaust emissions hardware for age-related fatigue. Given the sparse but clean history, the absence of advisories suggests basic upkeep was not skipped, yet the lack of recorded faults offers little insight into component life remaining. Verify service paperwork and probe hidden structural areas before purchase.
