2010 Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel · ST60 AEP

The vehicle presents a concerning maintenance trend characterized by recurring mechanical failures and persistent structural issues. While the most recent test on 4 December 2025 at 125,418 miles resulted in a pass, the vehicle failed earlier that same day due to excessive brake fluctuation and worn tyres. The record shows a pattern of reactive rather than preventative maintenance, with several failures occurring due to consumable wear such as tyres and brake discs that could have been addressed prior to testing. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. The data shows steady usage from 25,322 miles in September 2015 to 125,418 miles in December 2025. There are no significant gaps in the annual testing history, suggesting the vehicle has been in regular use. However, the frequency of failures suggests that while the car is driven regularly, the upkeep of essential components like braking systems and tyres has been inconsistent. A prospective buyer must prioritise a thorough inspection of the chassis and subframes. The rear subframe has been flagged for corrosion in the 2021, 2022, 2024, and 2025 tests. Although the tester noted the corrosion was not seriously weakening the structure, the persistence of this advisory over several years indicates a worsening or at least a non-resolving condition that requires close monitoring. The presence of corroded coil springs and shock absorbers in the December 2024 test further highlights a vulnerability in the suspension system. The braking system also requires scrutiny. The record shows a history of pitted or scored discs and binding or fluctuating service brakes, specifically noted in the December 2022 and December 2025 tests. Given the repeated issues with brake performance and the recurring advisory for worn tyres, a buyer should verify that all recent consumables have been replaced with quality parts and that the braking system is operating smoothly without pulsation or pulling.
