2018 Jaguar E-Pace 2.0L Diesel · RA68 AFZ

The Jaguar E-Pace passed its most recent MOT on 3 February 2026 at 87,658 miles, leaving it roadworthy with only minor advisories. The maintenance trend is stable rather than worsening. Recurring rear brake disc corrosion and front tyre edge wear persist, yet no fresh failures emerged after the January 2025 rectification work. Recorded mileage rose from 51,240 in January 2023 to 87,658 by February 2026, an average near 12,000 miles per year across the period. The jump from 59,763 in January 2024 to 74,227 in January 2025 shows roughly 14,500 miles covered that year, above the norm but not extreme. No standing gaps appear; the owner used the car consistently for its age. The January 2025 failure at 74,190 miles exposed both rear brake pads below 1.5 mm and an offside rear tyre sidewall bulge from structural separation, corrected before the pass eleven days later. Rear discs showed pitting and scoring at every test since 2024, and the February 2026 test still notes corroded rear discs. A buyer should inspect the rear braking assembly for caliper binding or hydraulic drag that accelerates disc corrosion, and verify the 20-inch front tyres are not scrubbing on edges from worn suspension geometry. Front brake pads drew a thin-wearing note in January 2023 and front tyres wore to legal limits by January 2024, suggesting the prior owner delayed consumable swaps. The windscreen stone chip logged in 2025 remains a minor cosmetic fault. Check underneath for chassis corrosion beyond the known rear disc surface rust, and confirm the child seat anchor points allow full seatbelt inspection.
