2010 Land Rover Discovery 2.7L Diesel · RE10 AAN

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent 2025-12-12 MOT at 164,484 miles recording a pass and no defects. Subsequent annual tests from 2022 to 2025 consistently showed passes, with no recorded issues. The single failed test in 2023-11-29 at identical mileage to the following pass on 2023-12-05 suggests a potential administrative error or rapid remediation, but no persistent faults are evident. The absence of advisories or critical failures in recent tests indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard. The mileage of 164,484 miles over 16 years aligns with an average annual usage of 10,280 miles, reflecting typical wear for the model. Tests conducted annually between 2022 and 2025 show consistent mileage increments, with no prolonged gaps or sudden spikes. The 2023-11-29 failure occurred at the same mileage as the subsequent pass, raising questions about the test’s validity but not the vehicle’s condition. Overall, the MOT record lacks anomalies, suggesting routine upkeep without significant mechanical strain. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common in older Land Rovers, and check brake components for corrosion or binding, particularly given the vehicle’s age. The exhaust system and underbody should be examined for rust, as structural integrity can degrade over time. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, the absence of detailed defect reports means in-person verification of these high-mileage components is essential to confirm their current state.
