LAND ROVER DISCOVERY2005 · 2.7L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 26 September 2025 at 226,827 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded, indicating that the owner has maintained the vehicle to a high standard. This streak of clean passes suggests a proactive approach to repairs, addressing issues before they escalate into MOT failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 207,306 miles and September 2025 at 226,827 miles, the vehicle has covered 19,521 miles. The intervals between tests are regular, usually falling between 4,000 and 5,000 miles, which suggests the car is used regularly and has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often degrades rubber components and causes internal corrosion. Despite the clean electronic record, a buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and suspension components common to the Discovery. At over 226,000 miles, the chassis and mounting rails require close scrutiny for deep-seated corrosion that an MOT only checks for structural weakness. The buyer should also inspect the air suspension, coil springs, and rubber bushes for wear, as the high mileage puts significant stress on these mechanical assemblies. Given the lack of recorded advisories, checking for fluid leaks from the drivetrain and brake lines is essential to ensure the mechanical condition matches the pristine MOT history.
