2010 Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel · LG60 LAA

The vehicle remains roadworthy but exhibits a clear and worsening trend regarding structural degradation and suspension wear. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 150,941 miles resulted in a pass, the history reveals persistent issues that have not been addressed through replacement. The presence of corrosion on the rear sub-frame and both coil springs has appeared across the last three tests, indicating that while the components have not yet reached critical failure, the underlying oxidation process is active and unmonitored. At 150,941 miles over 16 years, the Jaguar has averaged approximately 9,400 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a luxury saloon of this age. The data shows consistent annual mileage, with roughly 7,600 miles covered between the July 2024 and July 2025 tests. This steady usage suggests the car is not sat for long periods, but the high cumulative mileage places significant stress on heavy-duty components, particularly the rubber-mounted bushings and the structural integrity of the chassis. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the rear sub-frame to determine the depth of the corrosion beyond the tester's advisory. The previous failure of the offside rear suspension arm ball joint at 143,288 miles suggests the entire suspension geometry is nearing the end of its functional life. You should also inspect the coil springs for signs of thinning or cracking and verify if the nearside front wheel noted distorted in 2023 has been replaced, as a distorted rim can cause uneven tyre wear and vibrations.
