2018 Jaguar E-Pace 2.0L Diesel · SC18 XOB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend regarding tyre condition. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 53,636 miles passed, it followed a failure just one day prior. That failed test identified a structural failure in the nearside front tyre and perishing on the nearside rear tyre. This suggests the owner only addresses critical safety defects when forced by an MOT failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. At a recorded mileage of 53,636 miles over eight years, the car averages approximately 6,700 miles per year. This aligns with typical low-use patterns for a modern SUV. The data shows consistent annual intervals, with roughly 11,000 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests and another 11,200 miles between 2023 and 2024. The low annual mileage often indicates the vehicle spends sitting for extended periods, which explains the reported tyre perishing despite sufficient tread depth. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of all remaining tyres for signs of bulging, bulges, or deep sidewall cracking. The recurring failures for structural tyre defects in both 2024 and 2025 indicate a history of neglect regarding age-related rubber degradation. Beyond the tyres, the inspector should specifically check the suspension bushings and brake components, as low-mileage vehicles that sit frequently suffer from seized calipers or corrosion on the brake discs. No evidence of structural corrosion or mechanical failure exists in the record, but the reactive nature of the maintenance warrants a cautious approach to general upkeep.
