2014 LAND ROVER FREELANDER2.2L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent test indicates a minor lapse in preventative maintenance standards. While the car passed its July 2025 inspection at 127,026 miles, it initially failed the test due to headlamp aim issues and a binding offside rear service brake. The presence of a binding brake suggests that the caliper or handbrake mechanism is beginning to seize, although the subsequent pass indicates the issue was addressed or adjusted prior to the re-test. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per annum. Data from 2022 to 2025 shows a steady progression, moving from 108,104 miles to 127,026 miles. This regular usage suggests typical mechanical wear rather than the degradation associated with long periods of standing stationary. The lack of any recorded defects between 2022 and 2024 indicates that the vehicle was in a good structural and mechanical condition during that period. A buyer should specifically inspect the offside rear brake assembly to determine if the binding was a temporary result of dirt or a sign of deeper mechanical failure. Given the age and mileage of this Freelander, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these are common points of failure on this model. The headlamp aim failure is a minor adjustment issue, but verifying that the mounting brackets are secure will prevent repeat failures.
