2012 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · OV12 YLA

This vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean record of passes. The most recent test on 1 October 2025 at 101,804 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the car currently meets the minimum legal safety and environmental standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 7,272 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between July 2021 and September 2022, where the odometer rose from 75,867 to 86,577 miles. Since that period, the annual mileage has slowed, covering 4,784 miles between September 2023 and October 2025. The absence of advisories or failures across the last five years is unusual for a fourteen year old Land Rover Freelander. The record shows no mentions of corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc deterioration, which are common failure points for this model. A failure on 12 September 2022 was immediately rectified on the same day, though the record does not specify the nature of that defect. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and subframes for structural rust, as MOT testers often overlook early-stage corrosion that does not yet compromise safety. Given the lack of recorded faults, focus should shift to the service history to ensure oil changes and drivetrain maintenance occurred regardless of the clean MOT results. Check for any signs of oil leaks or coolant degradation that a standard MOT test might not flag.
