1995 Land Rover Defender 2.5L Diesel · L90 TDC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy; the latest MOT on 6 November 2025 at 204,013 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend after an isolated failure in early November 2025 that listed no faults. Across a 31‑year lifespan the Defender has accumulated 204,013 miles, averaging roughly 6,600 miles per year. Mileage rose from 196,380 miles in November 2022 to 204,013 miles by November 2025, a modest increase of about 7,600 miles over three years, suggesting consistent but moderate use without any sudden spikes that would hint at heavy short‑term loading. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should still examine wear items that are not captured by the test. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as excessive wear can develop between annual tests. Check the suspension bushings, coil springs and shock absorbers for any leaks, looseness or uneven ride height, especially on a vehicle of this age. Verify brake pads, discs and caliper operation for uneven wear or binding, and look for any signs of corrosion on the chassis, wheel arches and under‑body that could affect structural integrity. A visual assessment of the exhaust system and emission components will confirm that the clean MOT reflects ongoing compliance rather than a missed fault.
