2012 Jaguar XF 2.2L Diesel · OV62 XAF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT in February 2026 at 146,356 miles without recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows improvement following a period of significant neglect in early 2024. While the 2024 test revealed multiple failures related to consumables and lighting, the most recent inspection indicates a clean sheet, suggesting the current owner has addressed the pressing issues and maintained the vehicle more diligently recently. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per year. However, there is a distinct spike in usage noted between August 2023 at 76,385 miles and February 2024 at 112,527 miles, representing over 36,000 miles driven in just six months. This intensive burst of mileage likely explains the accelerated wear observed on tyres, brake pads, and the diesel particulate filter repair recorded during the February 2024 test. A buyer should focus inspection on the front suspension and wheel alignment, as the 2024 and 2025 records repeatedly flagged issues with uneven tyre wear and sidewall damage. These recurring faults often indicate worn bushes or incorrect tracking that may remain unaddressed. The documented external repair to the DPF at 112,527 miles also warrants close monitoring for exhaust smoke or loss of power to ensure the filtration system is functioning correctly under high load. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the brake system for binding calipers or excessive play is also essential.
