2013 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · DS62 OXT

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 11 September 2025 at 97,757 miles passed with no recorded defects, following a technical failure just two days prior at 97,755 miles. This specific failure sequence suggests a minor, easily rectified issue such as a blown bulb or a minor sensor fault that was addressed immediately before the re-test, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Between September 2024 and September 2025, the car covered 5,647 miles, while the previous year saw 5,014 miles recorded. This steady accumulation indicates regular use, which is generally beneficial for rubber components and seals to prevent drying out associated with long periods of inactivity. However, the low annual mileage means the vehicle requires close attention to age-related degradation of components. Despite the clean results of the most recent passing tests, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the suspension system and structural integrity. Freelander models. Given the age and mileage, the tester should specifically check for perished suspension bushes, leaking shock absorbers, and corrosion on the rear members. The braking system should also be evaluated for binding calipers or uneven wear on discs, as the MOT record does not detail the state of friction components beyond basic functional requirements. Checking the underside for structural rust is essential to ensure that hidden corrosion has not compromised the chassis despite the clean MOT history.
