Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage
Your primary focus should be verifying the repair work following the January 2025 MOT failure. Specifically, ask for documented proof that the 'suspension system inoperative' issue was resolved, as air suspension repairs on Discovery models can be costly. Check that the brake pads mentioned in that failure were replaced with quality parts.
Given the high mileage, check the service history for regular oil changes, which are critical for the 2993cc SD6 diesel engine. Inspect the windscreen and wiper assembly to ensure the issues noted in 2025 (wiper effectiveness and washer fluid delivery) have been permanently fixed and aren't symptoms of a larger electrical or plumbing issue.
Running this 3.0L diesel Discovery will involve significant costs. The large engine size and vehicle weight typically place it in a higher insurance group and tax band. Fuel economy will be heavily dependent on load and driving style, but expect typical large SUV figures.
Maintenance costs are expected to be higher than average due to the complexity of the Landmark trim and the SD6 powertrain. While the MOT history shows recent passes, the high mileage means components like tyres, brakes, and suspension bushings will require more frequent attention. Estimate annual running costs to be substantial.
Start by inspecting the suspension system. The 2025 MOT failure specifically cited an inoperative suspension system; test the vehicle's ability to raise and lower itself smoothly and listen for any unusual noises or 'hissing' sounds from the air bags or compressors.
Next, check the braking system. The 2025 failure recorded thin brake pads on both the nearside and offside rear. Ensure the rear brakes feel consistent and that there is no pulsation through the pedal. Finally, test the windscreen wipers and washer jets to ensure they meet the standards required by the 2025 MOT inspection.
This 2020 Land Rover Discovery Landmark SD6 Auto has covered 95,934 miles in approximately six years, which is significantly higher than the model average of 11,402 miles per year. While the most recent MOT in June 2026 showed no defects, the vehicle experienced a failure in early 2025 involving suspension and braking components. The high mileage suggests this vehicle has been used extensively, likely for long-distance motorway driving.
Based on an analysis of ,1740 vehicles, this model has an 89.6% average MOT pass rate, with common failures related to tyres, headlamps, and brake pads.
