2007 Land Rover Discovery 2.7L Diesel · AV07 NBY

This Discovery has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded since its most recent test on 2026-04-02 , though it narrowly avoided failure in March 2024 at just 95,308 miles . The absence of advisories or recurring issues suggests the vehicle has been kept in stable condition over the past three tests, though the single failure in 2024—despite no recorded defects—implies either a minor oversight or a component nearing its service interval. The most recent pass, just three months ago , aligns with the 12-month MOT cycle, but the 112,221-mile reading now exceeds the previous test by 4,885 miles , indicating recent use rather than neglect. The mileage progression reveals an unusually low annual average of 5,906 miles , consistent with light or intermittent usage. There are no abrupt jumps or prolonged gaps between tests, though the 10-month interval between the 2024 failure and pass (March 28 to April 4) is slightly irregular. This suggests the vehicle was either out of service for maintenance or stood unused during that period. The lack of excessive mileage between tests also implies consumables like brakes, tyres, and filters may have been replaced proactively, though this cannot be confirmed without service records. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components , particularly the coil springs and bushes , given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The 2024 failure —though unexplained—warrants scrutiny of braking systems , including rear caliper binding or warped discs, as these are common late-stage issues in Land Rovers. Structural corrosion should be checked at wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as 19-year-old vehicles are prone to hidden rust. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions controls (if applicable) should be inspected for leaks or degraded components, as these often fail silently before MOT defects appear. The absence of advisories does not guarantee these areas are flawless.
