2015 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.2L Diesel · OV15 FBA

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of deferred maintenance regarding wear-related components. The most recent test in August 2025 at 119,145 miles identified worn suspension arm bushes on both front sides and pitted front brake discs. While the vehicle passed, the recurrence of brake issues across multiple years suggests that components are only addressed once they reach the MOT failure threshold rather than following a preventative schedule. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,800 miles per year. There is a notable gap of nearly 18,000 miles between February 2022 (76,798 miles) and February 2023 (94,571 miles), which represents a period of relatively heavy usage. Since then, the vehicle has covered roughly 24,000 miles over the last three years, maintaining a steady rate of accumulation. This consistent usage profile aligns with the level of wear and tear observed on the chassis and braking system. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and braking assembly. The tester flagged worn suspension bushes in 2025 and pitted discs in both 2024 and 2025, indicating the front end is likely nearing the end of its service life. Furthermore, the recurring history of perishing tyres and uneven wear in 2023 and 2024 suggests that the vehicle may sit for extended periods or suffer from alignment issues. Verify the current condition of all rubber bushings for further cracking and check the thickness of the brake rotors to ensure no immediate major expenditure is required.
