2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · S55 NDE

The Discovery Sport presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 August 2025 at 63,367 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior passing test on 27 August 2024 at 53,333 miles also showed a clean sheet. The failed entry logged on 27 August 2024 at the same mileage and same date carries no recorded defects, which points to an administrative or documentation failure rather than a mechanical fault. Across the five-year span from September 2022 to August 2025 the vehicle cleared every test that counted, with no advisories or worn components flagged at any stage. Mileage accumulation sits at a modest 7,041 miles per year against the vehicle's nine-year life, a figure consistent with light private use. The records move from 36,753 miles on 9 September 2022, to 43,700 miles on 6 September 2023, then 53,333 miles on 27 August 2024, reaching 63,367 miles by 27 August 2025. That equates to roughly 7,000 to 10,000 miles annually with no abrupt jumps or standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse in faults yet clean throughout, which suggests the previous keeper kept basic consumable wear within test limits but leaves no detailed service evidence beyond MOT outcomes. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and Land Rover's known propensity for corrosion at chassis mounting points. The MOT history shows no structural integrity concerns or exhaust emissions failures, yet the absence of advisories across four passes means worn tyres or binding calipers were either absent or corrected before testing. Verify the 2024 failure reason with DVLA paperwork to confirm it was clerical. Given the unbroken pass record and typical mileage, the vehicle shows no worsening mechanical trend. Physical checks on underbody rust and drivetrain leaks remain prudent before purchase, as MOT cleanliness does not equate to confirmed service history.
