About This Data
The 2013 Jaguar Xk has an MOT pass rate of 88.3% based on 7,617 tests — well above the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 35,297 miles on the odometer. With a 11.7% failure rate, the 2013 Xk is rated as "Excellent" for MOT reliability.
If you own or are considering buying a 2013 Jaguar Xk, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to tyres: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating. With relatively low average mileage of 35,297 miles, many of these vehicles are still in good mechanical condition.
Tyres — 1.5% of failures
Tyres issues account for 1.5% of MOT failures on 2013 Jaguar Xk models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
Suspension — 1.0% of failures
Suspension issues account for 1.0% of MOT failures on 2013 Jaguar Xk models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: £200–500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
Visibility — 0.7% of failures
Visibility issues account for 0.7% of MOT failures on 2013 Jaguar Xk models. Visibility failures relate to the windscreen, wipers, washers, mirrors, and view-obstructing damage. Cracks in the windscreen swept area, ineffective wipers, or empty washer bottles are common causes. Typical repair costs: £10–300. Pre-MOT check: Check the windscreen for chips and cracks — damage larger than 10mm in the driver's swept area or 40mm elsewhere will fail. Test washers and wipers. Ensure both door mirrors are intact and adjustable.
