1975 Land Rover 88 2.3L Petrol · JFM 332N

The Land Rover 88 passed its most recent MOT on 22 May 2025 at 52,555 miles with no defects recorded, placing its roadworthiness status as currently sound. The single clean test result on file shows a stable maintenance trend with no worsening or recurring faults flagged across the available history. The recorded 52,555 miles against a 51 year old vehicle equates to roughly 1,030 miles per year, confirming exceptionally light use for its age. The DVSA record supplies only the 2025 entry, so no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between tests can be evidenced from the data provided. Such low annual mileage suggests long periods of standing, which on a 1975 chassis often masks dormant corrosion or perished rubber components rather than active wear. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity at the outriggers, chassis rails, and bulkhead for hidden rust, as a single pass with no advisories does not certify freedom from age related corrosion. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers warrant hands on checks for stiffness after prolonged storage. Verify the brake discs and exhaust emissions in person given the vehicle's vintage and low running cycle. The clean MOT implies basic upkeep was maintained, but the sparse record leaves mechanical condition between tests unverified.
