2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · WF66 AAJ

The Discovery Sport presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 May 2025 at 83,253 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 2 May 2024 at 75,496 miles also showed a clean sheet. The only blemish is a failure on 24 April 2024 at 75,491 miles, which the DVSA record lists with no defects recorded, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault with the vehicle itself. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2016 plate, averaging roughly 8,300 miles per year across the history. The records show 61,343 miles on 18 October 2022, rising to 70,939 by 4 October 2023, then 75,491 by April 2024, and 83,253 by May 2025. The gap between the October 2022 and October 2023 tests covers just under 9,600 miles, while the final year added about 7,750 miles. No rapid accumulation or prolonged standing is evident, and the sparse five-entry history carries no advisories on consumables or structure. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and the Land Rover chassis' known susceptibility to corrosion at mounting points. The clean MOT trail offers no evidence of binding calipers or exhaust emissions faults, but the April 2024 failure with zero recorded defects warrants a check of the VOSA failure reason to rule out a previously unlogged issue. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic pass standard with no deferred tyre or wiper replacements flagged. The absence of recurring advisories implies consistent upkeep, though the thin test history means wear on drivetrain components remains unverified without a physical appraisal.
