2011 Jaguar XKR 5.0L Petrol · PJH 3L

The 2026-06-17 verdict for the 2011 JAGUAR XKR is roadworthy, with the MOT record showing a stable maintenance trend. The tester flagged binding rear brakes on the 2025-08-27 test at 38,205 miles, a condition that has remained consistent across all subsequent tests from 2023 to 2022. This suggests the brakes were not recently inspected or serviced, indicating that basic upkeep was likely skipped and the issue is not a transient wear event but a recurring mechanical problem. The mileage history reveals a significant gap between the most recent test and the vehicle's age. The 2025-08-27 test at 38,205 miles was taken approximately 19 months ago, while the 2011 model is roughly 15 years old. This creates a risk of rapid mileage accumulation if the vehicle is driven for longer periods, as the accumulated miles could reflect wear on the suspension, brakes, or drivetrain components. The gap between the 2023-04-17 test at 29,320 miles and the 2025-08-27 test at 38,205 miles is a notable gap of 8,883 miles, which could suggest that the owner has maintained the car at a lower frequency or that the mileage has not been recorded accurately for longer periods. To ensure the vehicle's safety and longevity, the buyer must inspect the car in person for any signs of corrosion, structural integrity, or binding calipers. The history indicates that the brakes and suspension were not recently checked, and the lack of inspection on the 2025-08-27 test at 38,205 miles means that the car may not meet the safety standards for a used vehicle. The buyer should verify that the brakes are still functioning properly and that the suspension components are not showing signs of excessive wear that could lead to a safety hazard.
