2021 Land Rover Defender X-Dynamic S D Mhev A 3.0L Diesel · CM17 SON

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on March 4 2026 at 27,427 miles which passed without any recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have consistently maintained the vehicle to regulatory standards. The absence of advisories across consecutive tests suggests a proactive approach to mechanical upkeep. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,485 miles per year. Between the May 2024 test at 21,285 miles and the March 2026 test at 27,427 miles, the vehicle covered 6,142 miles. This consistent low usage suggests light duty, which typically reduces wear on high-stress components like the drivetrain and suspension bushings. However, low-use vehicles can sometimes suffer from flat-spotting tyres or brake oxidation if stationary for extended periods. Given the clean history, a physical inspection should focus on components that are components susceptible to low-mileage storage. An inspector should check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use can prevent the effective cleaning of the rotors. The suspension system should be examined for any perished rubber components or fluid leaks, despite the low mileage, as materials can degrade over time regardless of distance. The overall record reflects a well-preserved example that shows no signs of structural or mechanical neglect.
