2007 Jaguar XK 4.2L Petrol · NS 2118

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in November 2025 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently met the minimum safety standards following previous test failures. While the history shows failures in both 2024 and 2025, the subsequent passes indicate that any identified issues were rectified promptly, rather than representing a persistent or worsening mechanical decline. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nineteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,946 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between annual tests, with roughly 1,200 miles driven between November 2024 and 2025, and approximately 1,000 miles the year prior. While low mileage suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, it also increases the likelihood of degradation in rubber-based components, seals, and fluid chemistry due to the vehicle potentially sitting stationary for extended periods. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the components most affected by low-mileage sitting time, specifically the suspension bushings, rubber artwork, and brake lines. Given the age of the Jaguar, the structural integrity must be checked for corrosion in the sills and wheel arches, as moisture often collects irrespective of distance driven. Additionally, verify the age of the tyres to prevent cracking and ensure the brake calipers are not seized, as low use often masks age-related seizing in the braking system.
