2013 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY3.0L Diesel

The most recent MOT on 9 October 2025 recorded a failure for the off‑side headlamp aim, while the only advisory concerned corrosion of the nearside and off‑side sill that did not reduce structural rigidity. Consequently the vehicle does not currently satisfy the legal roadworthiness criteria. Over the past decade the record shows intermittent minor defects rather than a clear worsening trend, suggesting a generally stable maintenance pattern with occasional lapses. Mileage has risen from 30,679 mi in May 2016 to 87,684 mi in October 2025, averaging roughly 6,700 mi per year – a typical figure for a vehicle of this age. The incremental increases between each test (e.g., 48,091 mi in 2020 to 57,759 mi in 2021, then 66,581 mi in 2022) show no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps, indicating consistent usage. The 2018 entry lists an implausible 647,395 mi and should be regarded as a clerical error rather than a reflection of actual wear. A prospective buyer should verify headlamp alignment on both sides, given the recurring aim failures in 2021 and 2025. Front suspension arm pins or bushes were flagged as excessively worn in the 2021 test; visual inspection of the suspension links and bushings is advisable. Tyre tread depth should be checked, as front tyre deficiencies caused a failure in November 2022 and rear tyres approached the legal limit in October 2023. Finally, inspect the nearside and off‑side sill for surface corrosion and confirm that there are no active fluid leaks, especially around the steering rack, which was noted in the 2021 test.
