2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · N77 NCS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improving maintenance standards. The most recent test on 8 December 2025 at 68,719 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a successful test in December 2024 at 60,720 miles, which also showed no advisories or failures. The absence of defects in the last two annual inspections suggests the vehicle is currently being maintained to a high standard, moving away from the minor electrical and sensor issues noted in previous years. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical low-to-mid-range usage pattern for a ten-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 6,872 miles per year, which is relatively light for a Land Rover Discovery Sport. The data shows steady progression, with the mileage increasing by roughly 8,000 to 10,000 miles between each annual test from 2020 through 2025. This regular usage pattern is generally preferable to long periods of inactivity, as it suggests the engine, battery, and various seals have been regularly exercised. The MOT history reveals minor recurring issues related to external lighting and electrical sensors rather than mechanical or structural degradation. In December 2022, the vehicle failed due to a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system and condensation within the rear fog lamp lenses. A subsequent failure in December 2023 for a non-working offside rear fog lamp indicates that while these minor electrical faults were addressed, the owner has since moved toward more thorough pre-test checks. No issues regarding brake performance, suspension components, or structural corrosion have appeared in the records. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the electrical systems and lighting units to ensure the previous condensation and sensor issues remain resolved. While the MOT history is clean of mechanical failures, any vehicle of this age and mileage should still undergo a thorough check of the suspension bushes, brake discs, and tyre tread depth. The lack of advisories for brake wear or tyre deterioration in the recent records is a positive indicator of consistent upkeep.
