2021 Land Rover Discovery Sprt Rdyn SE P300E A 1.5L Hybrid electric · AK70 WOX

Accumulating 60,621 miles across five years establishes a steady and consistent record of roadworthiness, capped by a straightforward pass on 17 March 2026 with no recorded defects. This follows an earlier test on 26 March 2025 which also resulted in a clean pass, showing a stable trajectory of compliance following a minor setback in March 2024. During that 2024 test, the vehicle initially failed due to ineffective windscreen wipers on both the near and offside front positions, alongside multiple advisories concerning tyre wear and surface cuts, all of which were promptly rectified to secure the subsequent pass. Operating at an average of roughly 12,124 miles per year, this Discovery Sport has experienced heavier than average usage for its age. High annual mileage of this nature means that drivetrain components, suspension linkages, and friction braking materials have undergone continuous service rather than prolonged stationary periods. Mechanically, this usage profile places heavier demands on high-wear consumables and suspension bushes, necessitating careful scrutiny of how the chassis handles sustained highway and urban driving loads. Given the heavy wear documented on three of the tyres during the 2024 examination, a prospective buyer should closely inspect the current tread depth, inner-edge wear patterns, and overall health of all four tyres fitted to the vehicle, checking for any lingering alignment issues or suspension geometry wear that could accelerate tread degradation. The cuts previously noted on the rear tyres also underscore the importance of thoroughly examining the tyre sidewalls for curbing damage or structural compromise during a physical viewing. During the test drive, pay close attention to the vehicle's tracking and steering response, listening intently for any knocking or clunking noises emanating from the front and rear suspension over uneven road surfaces or speed humps. As this is a plug-in hybrid model with significant weight and high annual mileage, verify the smooth transition between the electric motor and petrol engine, and ensure that the regenerative and friction braking systems operate without excessive pedal travel, squealing, or judder.
