2015 Jaguar F-Type 5.0L Petrol · K6 VTC

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward mechanical concern. The most recent test on January 15, 2026, at 33,659 miles identified an oil leak from the rear differential. While the tester noted the leak was not excessive, it marks the first recorded defect in a multi-year period of clean test results. Prior to this, the vehicle demonstrated a stable record across the previous three inspections. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,060 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between March 2022 at 25,042 miles and December 2022, during which the car covered only 3,372 miles months. This low-frequency usage suggests the car sits for long periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid properties. The accumulation of miles since the last test remains consistent with a pattern of light, seasonal driving rather than long-distance commuting. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the rear differential to determine if the leak is a minor seal failure or a developing gasket issue. Given the low mileage and potential periods of inactivity, it is vital to check for perished bushings in the suspension and to ensure the brake calipers have not seized seized. The 2022 advisory regarding a sidewall cut on the offside rear tyre indicates previous physical damage, so the current state of the tyres should be evaluated for age-related rot or cracking despite the high tread depth.
