2010 Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel · M27 JAG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of deferred suspension repairs and component neglect. While the most recent test in April 2026 at 101,269 miles shows a pass, it flagged recurring issues with suspension bushes and tyres that appeared in previous years. The transition from a failure in April 2025 to a pass in April 2026 suggests the owner is addressing major faults only when required to pass the test, rather than following a proactive preventative schedule. At 101,269 miles, the Jaguar has covered an average of approximately 6,300 miles per year, which is consistent with a 16-year-old luxury saloon. The record shows steady usage, with roughly 3,100 miles driven between July 2024 and April 2025, and another 2,300 miles in the year leading to the latest test. This consistent mileage accumulation indicates the vehicle is not sitting stationary, but the age of the rubber and metal components remains significant despite the relatively low annual mileage. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the suspension geometry and structural integrity. The history repeatedly notes wear on suspension arm bushes and anti-roll bar linkages, specifically the offside rear and nearside front. The 2026 test also identified surface corrosion on the rear sub-frame; while not classified as seriously weakened, this area requires close monitoring for structural rust that could progress over the vehicle-s's remaining life. Additionally, the power steering component seepage noted in 2025 should be verified to ensure the leak has not developed into a more costly pump failure. Tyre condition shows a clear pattern of uneven wear, particularly inner edge wear noted across the 2025 and 2026 records. This suggests an alignment issue or worn shock absorbers that have not been fully rectified. The presence of corrosion on the inner surfaces of the front brake discs in April 2026 is common for lower-mileage cars but should be checked against the overall condition of the braking system to ensure the calipers are not seizing due to the aforementioned buildup of debris.
