2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · PN66 RLZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-10 at 68,781 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the history reveals inconsistencies: two failed tests on 2024-03-19 and 2022-12-21 at identical mileages (62,028 and 54,990 respectively) without recorded defects. These failures likely reflect procedural errors or minor non-compliances not flagged in the defect log, but the absence of recurring mechanical issues in the latest test suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a satisfactory standard. The mileage progression shows a gradual increase from 54,990 miles in 2022 to 68,781 in 2026, averaging 6,878 miles annually—a typical rate for a 10-year-old vehicle. Notably, the 2024-03-19 test recorded the same mileage as the prior 2022-12-22 test, raising questions about potential gaps in usage or data accuracy. The sparse defect history, combined with the lack of structural or emission-related issues, implies the vehicle has not experienced significant mechanical deterioration. A buyer should verify the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushings, given the model’s known susceptibility to wear. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is reassuring, but a physical inspection of the brake discs and calipers is recommended to confirm no hidden corrosion or binding. Structural integrity appears intact, but the repeated MOT failures without recorded faults warrant scrutiny of the vehicle’s service history to ensure no underlying issues were overlooked.
