2020 Land Rover Discovery Landmark SD6 Auto 3.0L Diesel · AY20 ONO

The vehicle currently presents a stable and improving mechanical trend, culminating in a clean pass on 27 February 2026 at 77,675 miles with zero defects recorded. This contrasts sharply with the failures and advisories recorded in early 2023, indicating that the immediate rectification work was completed successfully and the subsequent mileage has been covered without generating new faults. The maintenance trajectory over the last three years demonstrates a resolving pattern, moving away from the tyre and brake degradation seen previously. Accumulating 77,675 miles over six years equates to roughly 12,946 miles annually, a high figure for its age. The MOT records show consistent usage without prolonged standstill, covering 9,529 miles between February 2023 and February 2024, 9,908 miles over the following year, and 8,953 miles to the most recent test. This sustained high mileage accelerates wear on consumables like tyres and brake components, aligning with the front disc pitting and edge wear flagged during the 2023 assessments. Despite the clean recent record, a physical inspection should focus heavily on the components flagged in 2023 to verify the quality of the repairs. The tester flagged front inner brake discs as worn, pitted, and corroded in March 2023, alongside a front oil leak. Buyers should examine the brake disc faces and the engine or gearbox area for fresh or residual oil seepage. The rear tyres were condemned for cuts reaching the ply or cords in February 2023, meaning replacements should have been fitted, but the current condition of the rear sidewalls requires close scrutiny. The recorded windscreen damage also warrants a check to ensure the chip or crack has not spread across the driver's line of vision.
