Our Verdict
A strong option for those seeking a mode
When viewing this vehicle, prioritise verifying the full service history to ensure the mild-hybrid (MHEV) system and the 3.0L diesel engine have been maintained according to Land Rover's specific intervals. Because this is a high-specification 'X' trim, check that all electronic features and the automatic gearbox operate smoothly without hesitation.
Negotiate based on the service records rather than the MOT, as the MOT only captures a snapshot of safety compliance. Ensure there is no evidence of off-road wear that might not be apparent in a standard MOT test, such as underside damage or heavy suspension stress.
Running costs for this 2997cc diesel engine will be influenced by its Euro 6 status, making it ULEZ/CAZ compliant in most UK cities. As a larger SUV, insurance groups are typically higher than standard passenger cars, so obtain a quote based on the specific registration.
Maintenance costs for Land Rover models tend to be higher than average due to specialist parts requirements. Expect typical diesel maintenance costs, but factor in the potential for premium servicing required for the MHEV technology.
While the most recent MOT passed with no defects, be mindful of the aggregate data for this model, which identifies brake pads and wheel bearings as the most common MOT failure reasons. Inspect the brake pads for remaining thickness and listen for any humming or grinding noises from the wheels during a test drive.
Additionally, check the condition of the tyres and suspension components, as these are common wear items on heavy 4x4 vehicles. Given the 3.0L engine size, check for any signs of fluid leaks around the engine bay during your inspection.
This 2022 Land Rover Defender X D MHEV Auto is a relatively recent registration with 13,738 miles recorded as of May 2026. Given the average annual mileage for this model is 9,670, this specific green diesel variant has been driven slightly less than the statistical average. The most recent MOT in May 2026 showed no defects, which is a positive indicator for its current roadworthiness.
Aggregate data from 1,590 analysed vehicles shows a high MOT pass rate of 93.0%, though brake pads and wheel bearings are frequent failure points.
