2002 Land Rover Freelander 2.0L Diesel · FD52 GDY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its consistent passing record despite its age. The most recent test conducted in March 2023 at 191,046 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle met minimum safety standards at that time. While the history shows failures immediately preceding the passes in both 2022 and 2023, the owner successfully rectified the identified issues. At 191,046 miles over 24 years, the Freelander has averaged approximately 7,960 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for an older vehicle of this type. The data shows a steady accumulation of mileage, with roughly 4,300 miles covered between March 2021 and 2022, followed by nearly 9,214 miles between March 2022 and 2023. This consistent movement suggests the vehicle is used regularly rather than sitting for long periods, which often helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and brake seals. Given that the last recorded MOT is now over three years old, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection to account for potential wear and corrosion since 2023. Particular attention should be paid to the structural integrity of the chassis and rear subframe, as these are common failure points on this model. The buyer should also inspect the suspension bushes for signs of cracking and check for binding calipers or worn brake discs, as the record does not provide the current state of these mechanical components.
