2013 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · JA57 DEX

The 2013 Land Rover Freelander shows a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 9 April 2026 at 187,139 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior to that, the April 2025 and April 2024 tests also passed cleanly, indicating the vehicle has entered a period of consistent compliance after an isolated failure earlier in 2025. Mileage stands at 187,139 against a 13-year-old chassis, equating to roughly 14,400 miles per year and placing this example in the high-use bracket for its age. The record shows steady annual accumulation: 141,294 miles in April 2023, 150,837 in April 2024, 166,163 in April 2025, and 187,139 by April 2026. The only anomaly is the 7 April 2025 failure at 166,160 miles, reversed two days later at 166,163 miles with no defects listed, which suggests an administrative or presentation error at the test centre rather than a genuine mechanical fault. The clean MOT history gives no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the five-year span. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and drivetrain wear given the high mileage, focusing on front suspension arm bushes, rear trailing arm mounts, and transfer box condition typical of high-mileage Freelanders. The absence of recorded faults does not exempt the vehicle from age-related degradation invisible to the MOT regime.
