2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport 1.5L Petrol · AF70 EBJ

This 2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport presents a highly stable and clean roadworthiness trend based on its DVSA record. The most recent test on 20 November 2025 at 12,652 miles resulted in a clear pass with zero defects or advisories recorded. The vehicle has never failed an MOT, indicating consistent mechanical integrity and diligent upkeep by previous keepers. The mileage pattern reveals exceptionally low usage for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging just 3,163 miles annually. Between the test on 4 December 2024 at 5,992 miles and the November 2025 test, the Discovery Sport covered only 6,660 miles across an eleven-month period. Such low mileage often reflects short urban journeys or prolonged periods standing idle, both of which carry distinct mechanical implications. The MOT data is sparse but entirely clean, lacking any historical advisories that might otherwise suggest neglected consumable wear. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-usage deterioration rather than high-mileage wear. Brake calipers are a primary concern; infrequent use promotes corrosion within the caliper bores, leading to binding calipers and uneven brake disc wear. Exhaust emissions and diesel particulate filter health must also be evaluated, as short trips prevent the system from reaching optimal operating temperature to perform automatic regeneration cycles. Suspension bushes and coil springs can also degrade from inactivity rather than road mileage, so a thorough assessment of the suspension joints for perishing or stiffness is recommended during a driven inspection.
