LAND ROVER DISCOVERY SPORT2017 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend regarding brake component condition. In the most recent test in December 2025 at 56,935 miles, the tester flagged both front and rear brake discs as worn and pitted. This represents a progression from the 2024 and 2023 tests, where only the front discs showed signs of corrosion. While the vehicle passed, the recurring presence of surface degradation across all axles indicatesing mechanical attention. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-mileage usage, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per year over its nine-year life. There is a steady accumulation between annual tests, moving from 22,115 miles in December 2021 to 56,935 miles in December 2025. The gap of 11,000 miles between the last two tests shows a regular driving habit, though the low annual mileage suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods between short trips, which often leads to the surface pitting and corrosion bands noted on the brake rotors. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system to determine the depth of the disc pitting and the state of the pads. Since the rear discs have now been flagged alongside the fronts, a full set of discs and pads is likely required to ensure safe stopping and prevent caliper binding. The 2022 advisory regarding a worn nearside rear tyre at the limit suggests that basic consumable maintenance was occasionally neglected, so checking the tyres and suspension bushings for uneven wear is also essential. No major structural corrosion issues were recorded in the history to date.
