Our Verdict

A strong contender for a premium large S

Prioritise a review of the service history for the 2.9L SD6 engine to ensure it has been maintained according to manufacturer intervals. Given the 2023 MOT advisory regarding worn front lower suspension arm pins and bushes on both the nearside and offside, you should confirm whether these components have been replaced or if they remain a pending maintenance item.

The 2993cc diesel engine falls into a higher tax bracket and will have higher fuel costs than smaller SUVs. Insurance for the Landmark trim is typically high, and maintenance for the SD6 powertrain and air suspension can be expensive.

Carefully inspect the rear tyres; the September 2025 failure was significant, with cords exposed on the offside rear, so ensure the replacements are of a high-quality brand and have plenty of tread. You should also check the front lower suspension arms for any movement or degradation, as these were flagged as worn in September 2023.

This blue 2020 Land Rover Discovery Landmark SD6 has covered 52,036 miles, which is below the model average of 11,402 miles per year. The MOT history shows a failure in September 2025 due to severely worn rear tyres and previous advisories in 2023 regarding suspension bushes. Aside from these points, the vehicle has a consistent record of passing its tests.

The Discovery has an average MOT pass rate of 89.6%, with tyres being one of the most common reasons for failure across the model range.
