2012 Jeep Cherokee 2.8L Diesel · LE03 VPR

The 2012 Jeep Cherokee is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2025-09-30 at 110,515 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows a stable pattern over the past three years, with three consecutive passes and only one failure in the preceding 12 months. This indicates consistent upkeep and no emerging mechanical or structural issues that would compromise safety or compliance. The vehicle's mileage progression reflects a steady annual average of approximately 7,894 miles over its 14-year lifespan, which is within the expected range for a used SUV of this age. There are no significant gaps in testing, and the mileage increases between MOTs are consistent with normal usage. The most recent test occurred just over eight months ago, suggesting the owner has maintained a regular servicing schedule. The single failure in September 2025, which occurred at 110,163 miles, was not accompanied by any recorded defects, indicating it may have been a minor or procedural issue. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, a buyer should conduct a thorough in-person inspection focusing on high-wear components. Pay close attention to the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, which are common failure points in Jeep Cherokees of this era. Check the brake discs and calipers for excessive wear or binding, as rear brake issues have historically been prevalent. Also inspect the undercarriage for signs of corrosion, especially around the wheel arches and sills, which can affect structural integrity. While the MOT history shows no major defects, these areas warrant careful scrutiny to ensure long-term reliability.
