2008 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · DA08 EOX

The 2008 Land Rover Freelander presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 26 February 2026 at 109,965 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following three consecutive clean passes in 2023, 2024, and 2025. The maintenance history shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the examined period, indicating the vehicle has been kept to a roadworthy standard. Recorded mileage sits at 109,965 against an 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 6,109 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The odometer moved from 93,943 miles at the 24 March 2023 test to 99,146 miles by 6 March 2024, then 103,152 by 28 February 2025, and 109,965 by February 2026. Annual accumulation stayed between 5,000 and 7,000 miles with no sudden spikes or dormant gaps. A failed test on 6 March 2024 at 99,144 miles shows no defects logged, with a pass issued the same day at 99,146 miles, suggesting an administrative or measurement discrepancy rather than a mechanical rejection. The absence of flagged items means no recurring suspension bushes, brake disc wear, corrosion, or exhaust emission faults appear in the official record. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and drivetrain components, as a Freelander of this age commonly develops chassis rust and differential wear not always captured by MOT checks. Verify the 2024 dual-entry anomaly with DVSA paperwork before purchase. Given the clean test sequence and moderate use, previous owners appear to have maintained statutory compliance without neglected consumables. Physical examination of tyre sidewalls, underbody condition, and caliper operation remains prudent given the vehicle's 2008 manufacture date.
