2022 Land Rover Discovery Metro ED D Mhev A 3.0L Diesel · SC72 EDO

A consistent record of clean roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the most recent MOT on 25 September 2025 showing no recorded defects. This lack of recorded failures or advisories across its testing history indicates that the components inspected by the DVSA have met the required standards for structural integrity, braking efficiency, and emissions without any noted degradation or required remedial work. The vehicle's usage profile is characterised by a relatively low annual mileage accumulation, averaging approximately 5,953 miles per year over its four-year lifespan. With a recorded mileage of 23,813 miles, the vehicle has been driven significantly less than the typical UK average for a diesel-hybrid SUV of this age. While lower mileage generally implies less wear on mechanical components such as the drivetrain, suspension bushes, and brake discs, it can also mean the vehicle has spent more time stationary, which may affect the condition of rubber seals or the movement of certain mechanical linkages. Given the absence of any specific advisories or failures in the official records, there are no documented issues with components like the subframe, exhaust system, or braking hardware to investigate. On a test drive, focus on verifying that the low mileage has not resulted in any stiffness in the steering or unevenness in the brake pedal application. Listen for any unexpected knocks or rattles from the suspension when navigating uneven surfaces, as this will confirm the condition of the coil springs and bushes which have not been flagged for wear. Check for any signs of fluid weeping around the engine or transmission area to ensure that the lower usage has not led to seal shrinkage or minor leaks. Pay close attention to the smoothness of the mild-hybrid system's integration during gear transitions and acceleration, ensuring there is no hesitation that would contradict the clean MOT status. Since no specific defects have been recorded, the primary objective is to confirm that the vehicle's mechanical performance aligns with its documented history of passing inspections without advisories.
