2020 Land Rover Defender First Edition D Auto 2.0L Diesel · 44 HO

The vehicle is in excellent roadworthiness condition, with its most recent MOT passed on 25 August 2025 at 42,498 miles with no defects recorded. This follows a clean, consistent pattern across four consecutive tests since 2022, indicating stable mechanical health and no recurring failures. There is no evidence of emerging faults in brakes, suspension, steering, or emissions, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard. The recorded mileage progression is steady and typical for its age—42,498 miles over six years equates to roughly 7,000 miles annually, aligning with average usage. Each MOT interval shows a consistent 11,000 to 13,000-mile increase, with no gaps exceeding the 12-month test window. The absence of any advisory items or mileage anomalies suggests regular use without prolonged periods of inactivity or excessive strain. The consistency in both timing and condition reinforces confidence in the vehicle’s service history. Despite the clean record, a buyer should still inspect the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as these are common wear items on Land Rover Defenders even with low mileage. Check for signs of corrosion around the wheel arches, sills, and underbody, particularly where road salt exposure may have occurred despite the lack of advisories. The tyres should be examined for age-related cracking, as they may have been fitted before 2022 and could be nearing end-of-life despite adequate tread depth. Verify the integrity of the exhaust system and the condition of the transfer case and differential mounts, as these can develop subtle issues over time even without triggering MOT failures.
