2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · AF67 WSW

The Discovery Sport presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 29 April 2025 at 73,832 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 25 June 2024 at 70,035 miles. The single failure logged on 25 June 2024 at the same mileage and with no defects noted points to an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle was subsequently passed the same day. No advisories or recurring defects appear across the five entries from 2023 to 2025. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record shows 59,106 miles on 2 June 2023, rising to 59,444 miles by 12 July 2023, then 70,035 miles on 25 June 2024 and 73,832 miles on 29 April 2025. That equates to roughly 8,200 miles per year, with no sudden jumps or unexplained gaps. The sparse but clean history offers limited insight into component-level wear, though the absence of advisories suggests prior owners addressed issues before each test or the car saw light mechanical strain. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and Land Rover's known susceptibility to corrosion at chassis mountings. The MOT data flags no binding calipers, exhaust emissions failures, or structural integrity concerns, yet a 2017 model will have unseen wear in steering joints and underbody protection not captured by a pass with no defects. Given the clean record, focus the viewing on tyre sidewall condition, wiper operation, and evidence of previous underside treatment. The repeated same-day fail and pass in June 2024 implies the selling garage manages MOT logistics closely, so verify the vehicle's physical state matches the paper trail rather than relying on the absence of advisories alone.
