2015 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.2L Diesel · E15 TEF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive service pattern. While the most recent test in March 2025 at 91,410 miles passed, it followed a failure just three days prior due to critical brake wear. The trend for the braking system is concerning, showing thin pads and pitted discs across all four wheels, indicating that the previous owner only addresses mechanical faults when they threaten an MOT certificate rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. At 91,410 miles over 11 years, the Discovery Sport averages approximately 8,300 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage for its age. The data shows consistent use, with roughly 10,000 miles driven between February 2023 and March 2024, and another 10,000 miles between March 2024 and March 2025. This steady mileage suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, though the low mileage does not excuse the accelerated wear observed on the heavy braking components. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking assembly, as the 2025 record confirms the entire system was at the limit of its service life. Check for seized caliper pistons or uneven wear, as the recorded pitting on the discs suggests moisture corrosion or heat stress. The 2024 failure regarding an inoperative engine management light indicates a past electrical or sensor fault that should be verified via a diagnostic scan to ensure no hidden codes remain. Given the vehicle's age and model, an inspection of the suspension bushings and coil springs is also vital, as these components often degrade at this mileage bracket.
