2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · NA66 AED

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-07 at 132,636 miles recorded a pass with no defects, suggesting a stable roadworthiness status. However, the preceding test on 2025-12-22 at 132,561 miles failed without recorded defects, indicating potential inconsistency in compliance. The 2025-01-10 pass at 125,523 miles and the prior failure on 2025-01-09 at the same mileage further imply possible administrative errors or unresolved issues. While the latest test confirms no active faults, the pattern of repeated passes and fails at similar mileages raises questions about the vehicle’s maintenance consistency. The mileage of 132,636 miles at 10 years old equates to approximately 13,264 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age. A significant jump from 114,440 miles in 2024 to 125,523 miles by 2025-01-10 suggests rapid accumulation, potentially accelerating wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. The absence of defects in most tests does not preclude underlying issues, as minor faults may not trigger failure. The sparse data from 2024 to 2025-01-10, followed by a dense cluster of tests in late 2025, complicates assessing long-term trends. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, given the high mileage, and check for brake disc warping or binding calipers, which can arise from excessive use. Corrosion in structural components, particularly in areas prone to road salt, warrants scrutiny. The lack of recorded defects in recent tests does not eliminate the need for a thorough mechanical examination, as the vehicle’s history indicates intermittent compliance. Focus on fluid leaks, exhaust emissions, and tyre tread depth, as these are common wear points at this mileage.
