2009 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · FP09 OPH

The most recent MOT on 5 December 2025 at 205,806 miles passed with zero defects, indicating a stable and sound mechanical condition. The maintenance trend remains consistently positive, with the vehicle passing its last three consecutive tests cleanly. A failed test occurred on 22 November 2023 at 187,747 miles, yet the record curiously lists no defects for that failure, suggesting a minor rectification or an administrative anomaly before passing the very next day. Overall, the current roadworthiness status is excellent. At roughly seventeen years old, the Freelander has covered 205,806 miles, averaging approximately 12,106 miles annually, which sits slightly above the national average. The mileage accumulation demonstrates consistent, regular use rather than prolonged standing. Between December 2022 and November 2023, the vehicle covered 10,002 miles, and from November 2023 to December 2024, it added 10,644 miles. The most recent year saw a slight reduction, accumulating 7,414 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. This steady accumulation points to a vehicle driven regularly, avoiding the moisture ingress and flat-spotted tyres associated with long-term storage. Despite the pristine MOT record, a vehicle of this age and mileage requires a thorough physical inspection. The tester flagged no advisories, yet high-mileage Freelanders demand scrutiny of structural integrity, particularly the chassis and suspension mounting points for corrosion. Inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, alongside the brake discs and calipers, as these components endure significant stress at this mileage. Check the exhaust system for leaks and verify the operation of the four-wheel-drive system, ensuring the Haldex coupling and intermediate propshaft show no signs of excessive wear. The clean record implies diligent upkeep, but a pre-purchase inspection remains essential to confirm the structural and mechanical soundness of this high-mileage example.
