2010 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · CE60 FVJ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2022-08-17 at 69,703 miles, recorded a PASS with no defects. Subsequent tests in 2021 and 2020 also showed PASS outcomes, though one entry on 2020-08-04 notes a FAIL with no defects recorded, suggesting potential data inconsistency. Overall, the maintenance trend appears stable, with no recurring mechanical issues flagged over the past four years. However, the absence of an MOT since August 2022 raises concerns about compliance and unverified condition changes. The vehicle’s mileage of 69,703 miles over 16 years equates to approximately 4,356 annual miles, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage may indicate infrequent operation or prolonged storage, which can accelerate component degradation through corrosion or fluid stagnation. Test intervals between 2019 and 2022 were consistent, but the 2020-08-04 dual PASS/FAIL entry at identical mileage warrants scrutiny, potentially reflecting administrative error or unresolved technical issues. A buyer should prioritize inspecting suspension components, such as worn bushes or coil springs, common in older SUVs, and assess brake systems for binding calipers or uneven disc wear. Structural corrosion, particularly in the underbody or chassis, merits close examination due to the vehicle’s age. While MOT records show no critical failures, the extended gap since the last test necessitates a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm continued roadworthiness.
