2004 Land Rover Freelander 2.0L Diesel · AF04 ANF

The Land Rover Freelander presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 22 December 2025 at 166,007 miles where the tester recorded no defects. The prior pass on 23 December 2024 at 161,448 miles also showed a clean sheet, and the vehicle has carried no advisories or failures across the supplied record. This indicates consistent annual compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns over the last two years. The odometer reads 166,007 miles against a 22-year lifespan, equating to roughly 7,546 miles per year which is typical for the age. Mileage progression stayed modest: 154,922 miles on 22 October 2021, 160,595 by 28 October 2022, then 161,448 in December 2024 and 166,007 in December 2025. A clear gap exists between the October 2021 and October 2022 tests, suggesting the vehicle was off the road or unused for a period. The single failure on 22 October 2021 at 154,886 miles listed no defects, pointing to an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, with an immediate pass later that same day. The absence of flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion in the MOT history implies no recurring structural or mechanical risks on record. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of chassis integrity and underbody rust given the Freelander's age and the 2004 manufacturing date. Check the drivetrain and viscous coupling unit for wear, as these commonly degrade on high-mileage examples despite clean MOT outcomes. Verify the 2021 test gap and the unexplained failure with no defects via DVSA channels before purchase. The clean advisory history may reflect genuine care or light use, but 166,007 miles warrants scrutiny of consumables like tyres and wiper blades that the record did not flag.
