2017 Land Rover Discovery 3.0L Diesel · 64 EA

The 2017 Land Rover Discovery presents a stable maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at the most recent MOT on 27 October 2025 at 101,273 miles. No defects were recorded during this inspection, indicating the vehicle met all roadworthiness standards at that time. The historical record shows a largely unblemished run of passes, suggesting the previous owner addressed any immediate concerns promptly. A single failed test occurred on 19 August 2024 at 91,645 miles, though the record curiously lists no specific defects for this failure. The vehicle passed the very next day at the identical mileage, implying a minor or administrative issue was swiftly rectified. Mileage accumulation aligns closely with the national average for a vehicle of this age. Between the October 2022 test at 68,039 miles and the October 2023 test at 82,721 miles, the Discovery covered 14,682 miles, indicating a period of heavier use. The subsequent twelve months saw a reduction in usage, with the odometer climbing just 8,924 miles to reach 91,645 miles by August 2024. From that point until the October 2025 test at 101,273 miles, the vehicle accrued 9,628 miles over roughly fourteen months, confirming a consistent but moderate driving pattern. There are no alarming gaps or sudden spikes in the recorded distances. Despite the absence of recorded advisories, a pre-purchase inspection must focus on the typical failure points associated with this marque at this mileage. The air suspension system requires close scrutiny for leaks or compressor strain, particularly given the vehicle's age. Brake discs and pads should be measured for wear, as heavy SUVs consume these components faster than smaller vehicles. Structural integrity around the rear crossmember and chassis outriggers demands a thorough check for corrosion. While the MOT record paints a picture of diligent upkeep, the physical verification of these mechanical and structural components remains essential before purchase.
