LAND ROVER FREELANDER2004 · 2.0L Diesel

The 2004 Land Rover Freelander with 155,131 miles passed its most recent MOT on 2024-02-16, showing no defects. However, the record reveals two failed tests in 2023 and 2021, both with no recorded defects, suggesting potential minor issues resolved between assessments. The absence of critical failures in the latest test indicates a stable maintenance trend, though the recurring fails without detailed findings imply possible unresolved minor faults. The vehicle’s age and mileage align with typical usage, but the lack of detailed defect reports limits definitive conclusions about underlying mechanical health. The vehicle’s mileage of 155,131 miles over 22 years equates to approximately 7,051 miles annually, a rate consistent with average usage. MOT tests spaced 18 months apart (2021–2023) and 17 months (2023–2024) suggest regular but not frequent inspections. Notably, the 2023-02-28 test recorded both a fail and a pass on the same date, an anomaly likely due to data entry errors. Despite this, the absence of structural or safety-critical defects in the latest pass indicates the vehicle has met basic roadworthiness standards. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which are common wear points on aging Land Rovers. The absence of brake-related defects in the latest test is reassuring, but a physical check of brake discs and calipers is advised given the vehicle’s age. Corrosion, especially in underbody components, warrants scrutiny, as 22-year-old vehicles are prone to rust. While the MOT history shows no major red flags, the lack of detailed defect descriptions means a hands-on inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity.
