2008 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · DE08 UFT

The most recent MOT on 8 August 2022 recorded a failure at 150,198 miles, with no defects listed on the DVSA extract. Prior to that, the vehicle failed and then passed on 2 August 2021 at 140,622 miles, again with no advisories or defects captured. The available record shows no progressive fault trend, but the latest failure with no stated reason leaves roadworthiness unconfirmed and the maintenance history incomplete rather than demonstrably stable or worsening. The odometer stood at 140,622 miles in August 2021 and rose to 150,198 miles by August 2022, an annual gain of roughly 9,576 miles, marginally above the lifetime average of 8,344 miles per year. The gap between the 2021 and 2022 tests spans exactly one year, with no intermediate entries. Sparse recording and two failed tests in twelve months suggest intermittent testing discipline rather than consistent annual upkeep. A buyer must treat the August 2022 failure as unresolved. Without listed defects, the cause could sit anywhere from emissions to structural corrosion or brake function. Given the Freelander's age and 150,198 miles, front suspension arms, rear trailing bushes, and subframe rust demand physical inspection. Check brake disc wear, caliper binding, and exhaust integrity on site. The twin 2021 results at identical mileage hint the keeper rectified a fault quickly, yet the final failure with blank defect data means the car should not be assumed roadworthy without a fresh test.
