2008 Land Rover Discovery 2.7L Diesel · AV58 AAO

This Land Rover Discovery presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT test on 8 October 2024 at 135,405 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent five year trend of clean passes, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and has avoided the common failure points typical of this model. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 7,522 miles per year. Between 29 October 2020 at 120,614 miles and 8 October 2024 at 135,405 miles, the car covered 14,791 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally benefits the health of seals and rubber components. Despite the flawless MOT record, a buyer must manually inspect the chassis and suspension for corrosion. The DVSA tests often overlook surface rust or early structural degradation unless it compromises the integrity of a primary component. Given the 2008 build date, the underside should be checked for oxidation on the frame and suspension mounting points. A physical check of the brake discs and tyre tread depths is recommended. While the 2024 test flagged no defects, these are consumable items that can wear quickly between annual inspections. Verifying the service history for timing belt replacements and fluid changes will confirm if the mechanical upkeep matches the clean MOT data.
