2018 Jaguar XE 2.0L Diesel · OV18 KCU

The 2025‑04‑25 MOT at 46,297 miles confirms the Jaguar XE remains roadworthy with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance record. All previous tests from 2022 through 2024 also show pass outcomes with zero defects, reinforcing a consistent pattern of compliance. The vehicle’s 46,297 miles at eight years of age translate to an average annual mileage of roughly 5,800, which is modest for its age but shows a marked increase in the two years between the 2023 and 2025 tests, rising from 34,882 miles to 46,297 miles, or about 6,000 miles per year. The interval from the 2022 test at 22,934 miles to the 2023 test at 34,882 miles spans roughly twelve months, indicating a steady accumulation of mileage. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension components — bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers — as well as the brake system, checking for binding calipers, worn discs and uneven pad wear, since these areas are prone to deterioration even when MOTs record no defects. Inspection of the chassis for structural rust, the exhaust system for corrosion, and the condition of the tyres and wiper blades will complete a comprehensive assessment. Given the clean history and low recorded mileage, the car appears well cared for, but a thorough physical inspection remains essential to verify that the documented stability reflects genuine condition rather than deferred maintenance.
