2017 Land Rover Discovery 2.0L Diesel · JO03 ANT

The vehicle holds a current MOT pass as of 24 April 2026 at 88,203 miles, yet the test records advisories on front brake disc wear and front pad thinning. The maintenance trend shows a progressive deterioration of the braking system, with repeated pad wear in 2025 and emerging rear brake pipe corrosion in 2026. The brake system therefore requires immediate attention despite the overall pass. Between February 2020 (37,158 miles) and April 2026 (88,203 miles) the mileage increased by roughly 51,045 miles, averaging about 7,600 miles per year—typical for a nine‑year‑old Discovery. The jump from 72,155 miles in April 2024 to 80,373 miles in April 2025 reflects normal annual usage, while the duplicate 88,203‑mile entries on 23 and 24 April 2026 indicate a rapid two‑day retest rather than a mileage surge. A prospective buyer should closely inspect the front brake discs and pads for scoring and excessive wear, verify that the rear brake pipes are free of corrosion, and assess rear brake pad thickness to ensure compliance with the 1.5 mm minimum. The recurring pad wear suggests that routine servicing may have been overlooked, and the corroded rear brake pipes pose a potential leakage risk. A visual check of the offside front windscreen and wiper blades is also advisable, given the 2022 advisories, though those items have not reappeared in later records. Overall, the vehicle remains roadworthy but the brake system shows a clear trend of wear and corrosion that warrants immediate inspection and likely refurbishment before regular use. The remainder of the car shows no structural or suspension defects in the recorded history.
