LAND ROVER DEFENDER HSE D MHEV AUTO2022 · 3.0L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable, albeit sparse, maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean MOT record. During the test conducted on 15 July 2025 at 10,527 miles, the tester recorded zero defects, advisories, or failures across all mechanical and structural categories. This indicates the vehicle met the required roadworthiness standards comprehensively at that point in time, with no immediate mechanical or safety concerns flagged by the inspector. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a vehicle of this age. At four years old, the odometer reads just 10,527 miles, averaging roughly 2,632 miles per annum. A closer look at the data reveals an even more striking pattern; the MOT test on 15 July 2025 recorded 10,527 miles, which matches the current recorded mileage exactly. This suggests the vehicle has remained stationary or driven a negligible distance over the past twelve months. Prolonged standing can pose its own risks, such as flat-spotted tyres, brake disc corrosion, and deteriorating rubber components, despite the low mileage. Given the absence of mechanical faults in the official record, the primary concern shifts from wear-related failure to the effects of prolonged inactivity. A physical inspection must focus on the condition of the tyres, looking specifically for sidewall cracking or flat spots caused by remaining stationary under load. Brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion, which can cause binding or juddering when the vehicle is finally driven regularly. Suspension bushes and seals may have dried out, so a thorough assessment of these rubber components is necessary before committing to a purchase.
