2020 Jaguar E-Pace Chequered Flag D AWD A 2.0L Diesel · KO02 ASH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred consumable component replacement. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 29,195 miles secured a pass, the tester flagged thinning brake pads and discs on both axles. This represents a departure from the clean record in 2023, indicating that the vehicle is now entering a phase requiring mechanical attention despite its low overall mileage. The mileage profile remains low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,866 miles annually. There is a significant gap of 10,738 miles covered between the August 2024 and July 2025 tests, which suggests a recent period of higher usage compared to the previous year. This surge in mileage correlates with the wear noted on the brakes and tyres. The 2024 test highlighted that both front tyres were nearing the legal tread limit and showed uneven wear, potentially indicating a slight alignment issue or neglect regarding tyre pressures. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system. The 2025 advisory specifically mentions pitted and scored discs alongside thin pads, which likely necessitates a full set replacement to ensure effective stopping performance. The uneven tyre wear noted in 2024 also warrants a check of the suspension bushes and tracking geometry to ensure no underlying mechanical fault exists. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for signs of rubber degradation or fluid leaks, which can occur when a vehicle sits stationary for long periods between tests.
