Our Verdict
This 2013 Land Rover Freelander presents
When inspecting this Freelander, examine the recent December 2025 test notes regarding consumable items. Although the nearside rear inner brake pads, offside rear tyre, windscreen wipers, and nearside registration plate lamp were addressed to secure the pass, verify whether these components have been fully replaced or simply brought up to minimum standard. Cross-reference the mileage progression—from 40,445 miles in late 2022 to 58,606 miles by late 2025—with any available service documentation to confirm consistent maintenance.
Negotiate on the price if the rear tyre or brake pads are close to requiring secondary attention again. Given that the model's top MOT failure reasons nationally include tyres and parking brake efficiency, test the handbrake thoroughly on an incline during your viewing. Ensure all electrical functions, including the registration plate lamps and wiper mechanisms noted in the recent test, operate correctly.
Equipped with the 2179.0cc diesel engine, this Freelander will incur standard fuel consumption costs typical of a mid-size four-wheel-drive diesel utility vehicle. Road tax and insurance group ratings will reflect its 2013 registration date and SUV classification.
Maintenance costs should factor in common Land Rover wear items, particularly suspension components, brakes, and tyres given the vehicle's weight. Budget for regular servicing to keep the 2.1L diesel running efficiently, alongside standard consumable replacements as highlighted by recent advisory items.
Pay close attention to the rear axle area, noting the advisory for the nearside rear inner brake pad wearing thin and the offside rear tyre wearing close to the legal limit or on the edge during the December 2025 tests. Inspect the tread depth and wear patterns across all four tyres to check for alignment or suspension geometry issues.
Test the windscreen wipers and all exterior lighting, specifically verifying the nearside registration plate lamp that required attention during the 2025 failure. Check the parking brake operation carefully, as parking brake efficiency is among the most common failure points for this model nationwide.
First registered in November 2013, this red diesel model features a 2179.0cc engine and has covered 58,606 miles as of its December 2025 test. Its MOT history shows clean passes in 2022, 2023, and 2024, followed by a failure and subsequent pass in December 2025. The recorded mileage sits well below the model aggregate average, indicating light usage for its age.
The Freelander model demonstrates a 78.5% average MOT pass rate across nearly 150,000 analysed vehicles, with parking brakes and tyres forming the primary categories of failure.
