2020 Land Rover Discovery Sport R-DYN HSE D A 2.0L Diesel · KW70 LCY

The Discovery Sport presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 15 October 2025 at 31,611 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across its test history. The vehicle cleared with no defects recorded at that examination. Prior to this, the test on 14 October 2025 recorded a fail at the same mileage yet listed no defects, a pattern repeated on 30 October 2023 when a fail at 21,779 miles also carried no recorded faults. These administrative failures without noted mechanical defects suggest documentation or procedural issues at the testing station rather than worsening vehicle condition. Annual mileage has been low for a six-year-old vehicle, totalling 31,611 miles or roughly 5,268 miles per year. The records show 21,779 miles on 30 October 2023, rising to 25,730 miles by 4 October 2024 and 31,611 miles by October 2025. That equates to under 6,000 miles added in each twelve-month interval, with no abrupt accumulation. The sparse, clean advisory history gives little evidence of deferred consumable upkeep, though the two zero-defect failures warrant clarification from the selling party as to their cause. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's likely periods of standing from low use. Drivetrain seals and exhaust emissions hardware should be checked for deterioration through inactivity. The absence of recorded corrosion or structural integrity concerns in the DVSA data is reassuring, but stationary storage can mask binding calipers or flat-spotted tyres not captured in a pass result. Confirm the reason for the 2023 and 2025 failures with the DVSA or prior keeper before purchase. Verify service history aligns with the mileage gaps. The Land Rover shows no escalating fault trend, yet the unexplained fails mean a pre-sale mechanical appraisal remains sensible.
