2014 Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel · PF14 DFK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of worsening mechanical component failure. While it passed its most recent test in November 2025 at 115,450 miles, this followed a significant failure just five days prior. That failure highlighted multiple critical safety issues including a leaking brake pipe connection, illegal tyre condition, and excessively worn suspension components. The transition from a clean record to a multi-point failure suggests the owner only addresses faults when forced by law rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 115,450 miles over twelve years, the Jaguar has averaged approximately 9,600 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a luxury saloon of this age. The mileage progression shows consistent use, with roughly 7,300 miles covered between November 2023 and October 2024, and another 6,000 miles leading up to the 2025 tests. This regular interval indicates the vehicle is not sat for long periods, which likely explains the accelerated wear on rubber suspension bushes and braking hardware seen in the inspection data. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension geometry, as the record shows a recurring pattern of failing bushes and joints across all corners. The 2023 test flagged four separate lower and upper arm bushes, while the 2025 failure identified a worn offside rear upper arm and a perished anti-roll bar linkage. These repeated issues suggest the entire suspension assembly is reaching the end of its service life. Furthermore, the presence of corrosion on all brake discs noted in late 2025 indicates either periods of inactivity or low-quality replacement parts used, which could lead to binding calipers or poor stopping performance if not monitored.
