2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · OY68 OGR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on February 1,2026, at 76,632 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The car failed just five miles prior to that test due to an inoperative engine Malfunction Indicator Lamp, defective windscreen wipers, and an under-inflated rear tyre. While these were rectified to achieve the pass, the presence of an MIL fault suggests potential underlying electronic or sensor issues that require diagnostic attention to ensure no hidden faults remain. The mileage profile is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. The record shows a steady accumulation of 13,761 miles between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 11,386 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has been used consistently rather than sitting stationary for long periods, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components but places expected wear on the suspension and braking systems of a Land Rover Discovery Sport. A buyer should inspect the front braking system specifically, as the July 2025 test flagged thin pads and the July 2024 test noted tyres worn on the edges. This combination often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that have not yet been fully addressed. Given the recent failure regarding wipers and the MIL fault, a physical inspection of the wiper assembly and a diagnostic scan of the engine management system are necessary to confirm these issues are truly resolved. The tyre condition across all axles should be checked to ensure the previous under-inflation and wear has been properly corrected.
