2010 Jaguar XK 5.0L Petrol · H1 ALV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing tests over recent years. The most recent test on October 3 2025 at 89,241 miles resulted in a clean pass following a failure just two miles prior for an offside rear tyre tread depth below the legal limit. This indicates the owner is responsive to immediate safety failures, and the lack of recurring structural or major mechanical defects in the last five years suggests the vehicle remains well-maintained. At 89,241 miles, the Jaguar shows low mileage for its sixteen-year age, averaging approximately 5,578 miles per year. The data reveals a steady pattern of usage, with a notable increase of 6,895 miles covered between October 2024 and October 2025. This low-use profile generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long intervals between services can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based parts such as bushings and seals, which was evidenced historically by the perished and cracking tyre noted in the February 2017 test. A physical inspection should focus on the tyres and lighting systems, as the record shows a recurring trend of tyre-related failures and fog lamp issues. The tester flagged cord cuts and nails in 2017, 2019, and 2025, suggesting the buyer should check the current set for uneven wear or sidewall damage. Additionally, the electronic parking brake malfunction recorded in 2017 should be verified to ensure the repair remains robust and has not developed intermittent faults. Given the age and low mileage, checking the chassis for surface corrosion and the suspension bushings for cracking is essential to ensure long-term structural integrity.
