Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for those seeking a low-mile SUV with a clean recent MOT record. It represents a sensible value proposition provided the service history matches the low-mileage profile.
When inspecting this Discovery Sport, your priority should be verifying that the low mileage is consistent with the service history. Since the vehicle has covered under 9,000 miles per year, ensure it has been serviced annually rather than just based on mileage intervals to protect the petrol turbocharger and drivetrain. Check for any signs of wear on the suspension components, as these are common failure points for this model across the aggregate data of over 94,000 vehicles.
Negotiate based on the presence of a full service history. While the recent MOT was clean, ask for any advisories regarding brake wear or suspension bushings that may have appeared in previous years. Given the age, ensure the infotainment systems and sensors are functioning correctly, as repairs can be costly in modern Land Rover products.
The 2000cc petrol engine typically falls into a moderate insurance group compared to its diesel counterparts, though fuel economy will likely hover around 30-35 mpg depending on driving conditions. Tax for this petrol model is generally reasonable relative to higher-emission diesel variants.
Maintenance costs for Land Rovers can be higher than average UK brands; expect to pay for specialist parts. An estimated annual cost including fuel, tax, and routine maintenance is likely between £1,400 and £1,800.
Focus your inspection on the lower suspension, as the aggregate data identifies suspension arms as a top reason for MOT failures in this model. Look for any perished bushings or excessive play in the steering. Check the brake discs and pads, as these are noted as frequent points of failure for the Discovery Sport.
Additionally, inspect the engine bay for any signs of oil leaks around the 2.0L petrol engine. While the 2025 MOT showed no defects, a physical check of the coolant levels and oil condition is vital to ensure the vehicle has been maintained correctly.
This 2019 Land Rover Discovery Sport sits at 45,937 miles, which is significantly below the fleet average of 52,000 miles for a vehicle of this age. The most recent MOT in September 2025 passed with no recorded defects, suggesting the vehicle was mechanically compliant at that time. The 2.0L petrol engine offers a balance of performance and tax efficiency suitable for family use.
Aggregate data shows the Discovery Sport is prone to suspension-related MOT failures and brake component wear across large sample sizes.

AI Analysis
Historical fault & advisory patterns
Common Problems: LAND ROVER DISCOVERY SPORT
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Ingenium Timing Chain Stretch (The "Slap")(Serious)
The 2.0 diesel engine suffers from premature timing chain wear, often called "timing chain slap" as the chain stretches and hits the guides. This is primarily caused by oil dilution from interrupted DPF regenerations thinning the lubricant.
- Oil Dilution & Early Service Warning(Serious)
Interrupted DPF regenerations cause diesel to leak into the oil sump. When calculated dilution reaches 6% to 7%, the "Service Required" warning is triggered, often as early as 6,000–8,000 miles regardless of the official 21k-mile interval.
- Panoramic Roof and Boot Water Ingress(Moderate)
Blocked drains and poor sealing can lead to wet carpets and electrical faults.
