2014 Jaguar XF 2.2L Diesel · TH04 AEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record over the last three years. The most recent test on 8 September 2025 at 165,507 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just four days prior at 165,451 miles. This anomalous failure without recorded defects suggests a potential administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Since September 2022, the car has maintained a consistent pass record without advisories, indicating a reliable level of preventative maintenance. At 165,507 miles, this 12-year-old Jaguar has covered a significant distance, averaging approximately 13,800 miles per annum. The data shows very consistent usage, with intervals of roughly 6,000 to 7,000 miles between each annual test. For example, the vehicle clocked 5,900 miles between the September 2022 and August 2023 tests, and another 5,498 miles in the following year. This steady accumulation suggests the car was used for regular motorway driving rather than sitting idle, which is generally beneficial for mechanical seals and battery health despite the high mileage. Given the high mileage and the age of the vehicle, a buyer must focus on high-wear components that are not covered by the MOT test. Inspecting the physical condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs is essential, as these often degrade rapidly after 150,000 miles. Check for signs of oil leaks around the drivetrain and inspect the state of the brake calipers for binding or wear. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or brake failures, a physical inspection of the underbody is necessary to ensure that the high mileage has not compromised the structural integrity of the chassis.
