2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · DL66 GYY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean history of passes without recorded failures. The most recent test conducted on 16 August 2023 at 95,651 miles returned with no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle met all minimum legal standards at that time. This consistency suggests a proactive approach to maintenance where potential issues appear to be addressed before they result in an MOT failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression of use, moving from 54,491 miles in January 2020 to 95,651 miles by August 2023. While there is a gap of roughly 15,000 miles between the October 2021 and July 2022 tests, the overall accumulation suggests the car has seen regular road use, which often helps prevent the degradation of rubber seals and braking components typically associated with long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is remarkably clean, a buyer must focus on specific high-wear areas common to the Discovery Sport as it nears the 100,000-mile mark. Physical inspection should prioritise the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or cracking, as these often degrade without triggering an MOT advisory. Given the mileage, checking the condition of the brake discs for thinning and ensuring calipers are not binding is essential, as the MOT does not measure the remaining life of these components unless a functional failure is present.
