2008 Land Rover Discovery 2.7L Diesel · DA08 AXZ

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable trend of passing tests following a single failure in November 2023. The most recent test on 17 November 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a clean pass in October 2024, suggesting that the issues leading to the November 2023 failure were addressed. The recorded mileage of 162,366 miles reflects an average annual usage of approximately 9,000 miles. This consistent usage pattern over the vehicle's 18-year lifespan aligns with typical driving habits for this age. The MOT data points are spaced roughly annually, indicating regular inspections without significant gaps in the testing schedule. While the recent records are clean, the failure in November 2023, despite the lack of specific defect descriptions in the summary, warrants a physical inspection of common Land Rover Discovery wear points. A buyer should specifically examine the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and drive shafts. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, checking for structural corrosion on the chassis and inspecting the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear is advisable. The absence of recent advisories for tyres or wiper blades suggests these consumables were within legal limits at the time of the 2025 test. However, the high mileage makes a thorough check of the drivetrain components and exhaust emissions levels necessary to ensure no underlying mechanical degradation is present. buying_score: 70 risk_level: Low.
