2011 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY3.0L Diesel

The Discovery presents a stable maintenance trend with a clean pass recorded at its most recent test on 19 September 2025 at 162,388 miles. The DVSA log for that date also shows a fail entry at identical mileage with no defects noted, a pattern consistent with an administrative re-keying rather than a mechanical rejection. Across the available history every examination returned no advisories on brakes, suspension, emissions or structure. Mileage accumulation sits at roughly typical levels for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging about 10,800 miles per year. The odometer moved from 140,090 miles at the June 2021 test to 151,609 miles by June 2022, then jumped to 161,643 miles at August 2024 after a two-year gap in recorded tests. That lapse means the period between mid-2022 and mid-2024 lacks official scrutiny, though the subsequent pass at 161,643 miles with no defects suggests continued serviceability. The final 745 miles to the 2025 test reflect minimal recent use. Given the absence of recorded faults, previous owners appear to have maintained basic roadworthiness, yet the sparse record and the 2022-2024 gap leave unknowns about interim care. A buyer should physically inspect front suspension bushes, rear coil springs and brake disc condition for hidden fatigue not captured by the tester. Structural integrity around chassis outriggers and subframe mounts demands close checks for corrosion typical of this model age. The lack of advisories on tyres or wiper blades indicates minor consumables met limits, but serious mechanical risks tied to the 162k mileage remain invisible without inspection. The buyer should verify transmission and drivetrain seals for leaks, as Land Rover units of this era often show weeps absent from MOT sheets.
