2017 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY SPORT2.0L Diesel

The 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-13 at 73,049 miles resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. Previous tests from 2023 and 2022 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. However, the 2024-09-07 record shows conflicting outcomes—both a pass and a fail at the same mileage, with no defects noted. This inconsistency may reflect administrative error or a minor non-defect issue, but the absence of recorded faults in subsequent tests suggests no critical mechanical decline. The vehicle’s mileage of 73,049 miles over nine years aligns with average annual usage of 8,117 miles, implying regular but not excessive wear. The MOT intervals between 2022 and 2025 are consistent, with 13–15 months between tests, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The 2024-09-07 anomaly, however, raises questions about the accuracy of the records. No significant gaps in testing are evident, and the lack of defects in the majority of entries suggests the owner prioritized compliance. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for wear, particularly at the 2024-09-07 test’s unresolved status, though no specific issues were flagged. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for uneven wear, as higher mileage often accelerates such degradation. Corrosion on underbody panels and exhaust system integrity are also critical, given the vehicle’s age. The absence of recorded defects does not eliminate the need for a physical inspection, as some issues may not trigger MOT failures but could affect long-term reliability.
