LAND ROVER DEFENDER2015 · 2.2L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes. The most recent inspection conducted in November 2025 at 25,735 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all safety and environmental standards. This follows a clean result from 2023, suggesting that there are no recurring mechanical failures or structural issues emerging from the last several years of operation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old Defender, averaging approximately 2,340 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the vehicle covered only 8 miles, indicating long periods of stationary storage. However, usage increased significantly between 2023 and 2025, where the vehicle clocked 11,201 miles in two years. While low total mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such intervals of sitting often lead to degradation of rubber components, seals, and internal corrosion within the fuel and brake systems. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage storage habits. The 2024 test flagged a cut on the nearside front tyre and a damaged mirror, though these were minor cosmetic and consumable issues. Given the erratic usage patterns, it is vital to check for perished suspension bushes, cracked rubber hoses, and seized brake calipers that often occur during disuse. The chassis and structural integrity should also be scrutinized for surface rust, as the MOT record has not yet flagged any corrosion-related failures despite the vehicle's age.
