Our Verdict
Approach this 2010 Land Rover Freelander diesel with caution and budget for immediate suspension and braking work. The recent MOT history shows repeated minor failures that were quickly corrected, but underlying wear is evident for a 16-year-old vehicle.
Given the May 2026 failure for an excessively worn offside front anti-roll bar drop link and worn front brake discs, confirm with the seller that these were replaced or repaired after the 2026-05-07 failure and request invoices. The 2025 failure for a rear shock fluid leak, non-working offside rear stop lamp and poor parking brake efficiency should also be evidenced as fixed. A full service history is important for a 2010 diesel Freelander; without it, budget for timing belt, fuel filter and general inspection given the age.
As a 2.2-litre diesel registered in July 2010, this Freelander will fall into a higher VED band than modern small cars and insurance group reflects its 4x4 status, though exact group is not in the data. Diesel economy on a Freelander of this era is typically modest for a large SUV, and at 93k miles maintenance such as brakes and suspension will add cost. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance and typical upkeep is around £1,400-£1,800.
Inspect the front brake discs and the offside front anti-roll bar drop link closely, as these were flagged at the May 2026 test and the drop link was an excessive wear failure. Check the offside rear shock absorber for any signs of fluid leak and verify the parking brake holds efficiently, following the 2025 serious leak and efficiency fail. Confirm the windscreen wiper blades and rear stop lamps function, and review overall body and chassis corrosion common on a 16-year-old Land Rover.
This red 2010 Land Rover Freelander 2.2 diesel (MV10AEZ) has covered 93,089 miles as of its May 2026 MOT pass, with a broadly consistent annual mileage of roughly 5,000 miles. The MOT record shows two recent failures in 2025 and 2026 for worn suspension links, brake disc wear, wiper and lighting faults, though each was rectified and passed days later. No aggregate model reliability data is available, so assessment rests solely on this vehicle's own history. The pattern suggests an ageing but maintained example with typical wear items needing attention.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Land Rover Freelander, so this assessment is based only on the individual vehicle's recorded history.
