2017 Land Rover Discovery 3.0L Diesel · LD67 VSM

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 16 September 2025 at 64,984 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a minor failure just one mile prior to that test. The tester flagged a nearside front suspension component pin or bush as excessively worn, which was immediately rectified to achieve the subsequent pass. This indicates the owner is responsive to safety-critical defects rather than allowing mechanical faults to persist. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between October 2022 at 45,014 miles and November 2024 at 58,907 miles, the car covered roughly 13,000 miles, reflecting a steady usage profile. The recent interval of 6,077 miles between the November 2024 and September 2025 tests shows regular operation, which generally helps in keeping rubber components and seals from seizing over long periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry to ensure the repair made in September 2025 was executed to standard. Given the Discovery's weight, checking for premature wear on the control arm bushes and coil springs is vital to prevent future MOT failures. While the record shows no recurring advisories over the last three years, the lack of recorded minor-wear items means the buyer should manually verify the condition of brake discs and check for surface corrosion on the underbody that the tester may not have highlighted.
