2013 Land Rover Defender 2.2L Diesel · PJ63 ABU

The most recent MOT on 27 November 2025 recorded a pass at 101,086 miles, confirming the vehicle is currently road‑worthy. The pattern of a fail followed by a pass in both 2024 and 2025, with no defects logged on either occasion, suggests a stable maintenance trend rather than a worsening one. Mileage has risen from 92,595 miles on 29 November 2023 to 101,086 miles on 27 November 2025, an increase of roughly 8,500 miles over two years. This equates to about 4,250 miles per annum, well within the typical range for a thirteen‑year‑old Defender and shows no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps in usage. The recorded figures are consistent and do not reveal any periods of unusually high or low mileage that would raise immediate concerns. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the suspension system, paying particular attention to bushings and coil springs for any signs of wear or corrosion that may not appear on the MOT record. Inspect brake discs and pads for uneven wear or binding, and examine tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, as consumables are not captured in the test outcomes. A visual check for structural rust, especially around wheel arches and chassis joints, will help confirm the absence of hidden deterioration. While the MOT history shows no recorded faults, a thorough in‑person assessment of these key components will provide confidence in the vehicle’s long‑term reliability.
