2013 Jaguar XK 5.0L Petrol · OO08 SRW

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted in March 2026 at 41,403 miles resulted in a pass despite an advisory for thinning rear brake pads. This indicates a standard consumable wear rather than a mechanical failure, following three consecutive clean records from the 2025, 2023, and 2022 tests. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,185 miles per year. Between December 2022 and February 2025, the car covered only 1,216 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary or very limited seasonal use. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often increases the risk of degradation in rubber-based components and fluid-related issues that are not captured by mileage figures alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the recent advisory confirms the pads require attention. The 2021 test at 38,412 miles flagged an insecure central rear upper exhaust heat shield and a perished nearside front valve stem, which suggests that rubber components and heat mounts may suffer from age-related cracking rather than use. Inspect the suspension bushings and tyres for flat spotting or drying, as low-frequency use often leads to material brittleness over a decade.
