2022 Land Rover Defender HSE Mhev Auto 3.0L Petrol · LH72 ABK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT on 14 November 2025 at 65,222 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite an anomalous failure just eight days prior on 06 November 2025 at 64,856 miles. Because the record shows no recorded defects for that initial failure, it suggests an administrative error or a minor non-testable issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. At 65,222 miles, this four-year-old Defender has covered a significant distance, averaging over 16,000 miles per annum. This rate indicates consistent heavy use or frequent motorway mileage, which typically accelerates the wear on consumable components compared to lower-mile examples. The short interval between the failure and the subsequent pass shows the owner was proactive in addressing the MOT test requirements, though the high mileage places greater demand on the MHEV drivetrain and suspension assembly. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and braking system, given the high mileage accumulation on a Land Rover chassis. Inspect the control arms and coil springs for signs of premature wear, as these often show stress at this interval. While the MOT record is clean of structural corrosion, the high mileage necessitates a thorough check of brake disc thickness and caliper condition to ensure the vehicle has not been subjected to excessive towing or heavy loads without adequate maintenance.
