Hi and welcome.

Car 7902. V6 in Polaris White.

This car is from mid-2013 and was PDI in Leicester on 23rd September 2023. It then wasn't sold until 18th July 2014.
Back in 2013 to 16 this was typically an indication of a showroom car for a few months but as this is much longer it might of been a customer car order that fell through.

MOT history on car looks good with nearly 70k on it.
If you pop the full VIN into https://osh.jaguar.com you will see the service history.

The first service wasn't done until October 2017 with 27,296 miles recorded so 2+ years and 11,000 miles overdue and by this point the oil would of been 4.5 years old.

The next service recorded is from October 2022 with 61,000 miles recorded. And that's it. So I presume or hope it comes with paperwork instead as there are no records of to show whether important items have been changed. IE it should of had two rear diff oil changes, plugs and the next service should be the 9th one which is accessory and supercharger belts so expect £1,100 to £1,500 for that.

As there is little to no information on this car I would always recommend getting a full inspection and check starting with something like Car Vertical (who sponsor the forum and offer 10% off).

Here is the Jaguar Customer Copy so you can fill in the gaps from paperwork they send over.

If you have the Jaguar or independent invoices then you can get the online service history corrected (as 1st service is recorded wrong and should be 2nd or 3rd maybe for example).

How have they managed to renew the fuel filter, I thought f-types did not have one?

Well I hope you get a good deal on the car. 5 services over a period with 9 or10 due would certainly make me walk.
