Default powertrain module replacement

Hello
i am new to the forum and jaguars...or at least i hope to be new. I currently drive an older model Cayman S. I am considering purchasing a 2018 coupe 380F type AWD R-Dynamic. Low miles (approx. 7000km). The Carfax indicates the powertrain module has been replaced. This seems strange on a newish, low mileage vehicle. Is this something I should be concerned about?

My other option is to purchase a low mileage (7500 km) 2019 coupe P380 that does not appear to have any work done on it.

I prefer the AWD but am concerned about the work that it has needed. I would appreciate any advice/thoughts

Thanks

Welcome to the forums jack london,

The very low km's together with replacement of a major module would also make me think hard. There's a high risk of picking up someone's lemon. If it also has a very attractive price, I'd be even more suspicious.
