2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · L666 AAR

The vehicle currently maintains a clean bill of health, with the most recent MOT on 26 February 2026 at 66,722 miles resulting in a pass with zero recorded defects. This represents a highly stable maintenance trend, as the car has successfully cleared three consecutive annual inspections without a single advisory notice. The transition from a failure in May 2023 to a consistent string of clean passes suggests that any previous mechanical irregularities have been rectified and that the vehicle is currently being managed with professional diligence. The recorded mileage of 66,722 over a ten-year lifespan averages approximately 6,670 miles per annum, which sits comfortably within the expected usage parameters for a Land Rover Discovery Sport. A notable period of inactivity occurred between the failed test in May 2023 and the subsequent pass in July 2023, where the vehicle covered only 70 miles. While the mileage accumulation remains consistent overall, the lack of recorded advisories during these years implies that the owner has likely addressed wear items such as brake pads and tyres before they reached the threshold for formal testing remarks. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the undercarriage and suspension components, as the MOT record does not capture the condition of hidden bushings or potential fluid leaks common to this platform. Despite the clean test history, verify the condition of the suspension arms and steering rack gaiters, which often exhibit wear on Discovery Sport models at this mileage. Check the service history documentation to confirm that the timing belt and transmission fluid have been serviced according to the manufacturer schedule, as these critical maintenance items remain outside the scope of a standard MOT inspection.
