2015 Land Rover Discovery 3.0L Diesel · MA12 TYG

The most recent MOT from September 2025 shows a pass, but it highlights a recurring issue with front tyre wear, specifically noting that they are worn close to the legal limit and unevenly on the edges. There is a clear, consistent pattern of tyre-related advisories and defects appearing almost every year since 2022. This trend suggests a persistent issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry rather than just simple wear and tear. While the vehicle passed without defects in 2024, the return of edge-wear issues in 2025 indicates that the condition is not improving and the underlying cause has not been permanently rectified. At roughly 8,800 miles per year, the mileage is typical for an 11-year-old vehicle. This level of usage suggests the car hasn't been excessively driven, but it also means it hasn't been sitting idle for long periods. The wear pattern is more likely due to mechanical alignment issues rather than high-mileage degradation. Because of the repeated reports of uneven tyre wear, you must inspect the vehicle's suspension components and steering rack for play. You should also check for any signs of unevenness in the tread of all four tyres and verify if a professional four-wheel alignment has actually been carried out recently.
