2011 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · CT11 DXY

The 2011 Land Rover Freelander presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the clean pass recorded on 6 February 2026 at 85,951 miles. The most recent test shows no defects, though four days earlier on 2 February 2026 at 85,835 miles the vehicle failed with no defects formally logged, a pattern consistent with an administrative or presentation issue at retest rather than a mechanical fault. Across the prior three years the car passed without advisories, indicating no escalating wear flagged by DVLA testers. Annual mileage sits low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle at roughly 5,730 miles per year, with the record showing 73,262 miles in March 2023, 76,570 in January 2024, 78,951 in February 2025, and 85,835 by February 2026. The jump of about 6,900 miles between early 2025 and early 2026 is the largest single-year movement in the data and suggests a period of standing was broken by regular use. The sparse, clean history gives little evidence of neglected consumables, though absence of advisories does not confirm component condition. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, front coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as Freelander chassis of this era commonly develop corrosion and worn arms unseen in a pass with no advisories. The unexplained fail on 2 February 2026 warrants a check of the test certificate and any rectification work carried out between the two February dates. Given the low annual use, examine underbody structural integrity and brake caliper binding caused by long idle periods.
