2022 Land Rover Defender X-Dynamic SE D Mhev A 3.0L Diesel · DV72 XGJ

The vehicle maintains a clean roadworthiness status following the most recent MOT test conducted on 18 October 2025 at 34,643 miles. This inspection resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the primary safety-critical systems were operating within regulatory tolerances at that time. Given the lack of any historical failures or warnings, the maintenance trend appears stable and reflects a vehicle that has not yet reached the stage where recurring mechanical degradation typically emerges. The recorded mileage of 34,643 miles over a four-year period aligns with standard usage patterns for a vehicle of this class, averaging approximately 8,661 miles per annum. The history is remarkably sparse, which is expected for a vehicle of this relatively young age. The absence of multiple MOT records is a direct consequence of the initial three-year exemption period applicable to new vehicles in the United Kingdom, meaning the October 2025 test serves as the first formal external assessment of the vehicle's condition. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the undercarriage and suspension components, as these areas are prone to accelerated wear on heavy all-terrain vehicles. While the MOT record is clean, it does not account for the current state of consumable items like brake pad thickness or tyre sidewall integrity that may have changed since the last test nine months ago. Verify that the air suspension system cycles through its height settings without hesitation and check for any signs of fluid seepage around the drivetrain seals. A thorough visual check of the chassis for any impact damage or premature surface corrosion remains prudent, as the MOT test is a minimum safety standard rather than a comprehensive mechanical health assessment.
