2009 Jaguar XF 3.0L Diesel · YC09 RXS

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-15 shows the vehicle passed but with three tyres near legal limit wear, particularly on the offside front and rear. This indicates the tyres are approaching replacement and could pose a safety risk if not addressed soon. The recurring issue over the last few years involves brake system wear and corrosion, including corroded brake hoses and pipes, as well as fluctuating brake performance. These problems have persisted through multiple MOTs and suggest ongoing neglect or lack of timely maintenance. The condition trend appears to be worsening. While some issues were minor in earlier tests, such as slight bush wear, later reports show more significant concerns like imbalanced rear brakes and excessive brake binding. The brake system’s deterioration is particularly concerning and requires immediate attention. Mileage of 168,715 miles over 17 years equates to around 9,924 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. It does not indicate unusually high usage, but nor does it suggest long periods of inactivity. The consistent wear patterns point more toward normal use with possible gaps in maintenance rather than extreme abuse.
