2018 Land Rover Discovery 2.0L Diesel · JE11 KOY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 27 March 2025 at 30,067 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all minimum safety and environmental standards. This follows a period of consistent passes since 2022, suggesting that the mechanical components have remained maintained without significant failures in the recent testing cycles. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old Discovery, averaging approximately 3,758 miles per year. Between June 2021 at 14,844 miles and March 2025 at 30,067 miles, the vehicle covered just over 15,000 miles. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or brake corrosion due to disuse. The consistent annual usage suggests short-distance urban driving rather than heavy long-distance commuting. The recorded failures are non-mechanical and related to minor consumables or administration. The failure in March 2023 at 20,077 miles involved an ineffective nearside front windscreen wiper, while the failure in March 2024 at 24,385 miles was due to an incorrect registration plate. Neither entry indicates underlying issues with the structural integrity or complex suspension system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on checking for brake rust on discs, which is common on low-mileage vehicles that sit stationary. Given the age and mileage, verifying the condition of the suspension bushes and tyres is advisable to ensure they have not perished from age. The lack of any advisories in the record suggests the vehicle has been well-kept despite the low usage levels.
