2021 Land Rover Defender X-Dynamic SE Auto 2.0L Petrol · JC18 RKK

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-11 at 58,791 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. The prior test on 2025-04-29 at 47,094 miles also passed without issues, while the failed test on 2025-04-25 at 46,928 miles noted no defects. This suggests the failure may have been a procedural error or unrelated to mechanical integrity. The absence of recurring faults in the last two tests implies no immediate risks, though the failed test’s lack of recorded defects warrants scrutiny. The mileage of 58,791 miles aligns with the vehicle’s five-year age, averaging ~11,758 miles annually, which is typical for its class. A notable gap exists between the 2025-04-25 failed test (46,928 miles) and the subsequent 2025-04-29 pass (47,094 miles), a mere 166-mile increment over four days. This suggests minimal usage during that period, potentially indicating storage or infrequent operation. The subsequent 11,697-mile increase to 58,791 miles by March 2026 reflects normal annual usage, with no signs of excessive wear on consumables or major systems. A buyer should verify the suspension, brakes, and exhaust systems during an in-person inspection, as these are common areas for wear in vehicles of this age. While no defects were recorded, the failed MOT at 46,928 miles—despite no reported issues—raises questions about potential minor faults overlooked during testing. Inspect for corrosion around the chassis, binding calipers, or uneven brake disc wear, which may not trigger immediate MOT failures but could impact long-term reliability. The lack of structural or emissions-related issues in the record is reassuring, but a thorough mechanical check is advised to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
