Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to significantl
With mileage exceeding 119,000, the primary focus should be on the service history of the SD6 engine to ensure oil changes and major intervals were met. Negotiate based on the high mileage compared to the model average of approximately 12,353 miles per year.
Ensure any evidence of suspension work is provided to address the February 2025 advisory. Given the vehicle's usage profile, check for wear on high-touch interior surfaces and the condition of the braking system, which may have been stressed by high annual mileage.
The 2993cc diesel engine falls into a higher tax bracket and insurance group typical for large luxury SUVs. Fuel economy will be reflective of a heavy vehicle with a large-capacity engine, and Euro 6 compliance helps with urban emissions zones.
Expect higher maintenance costs as the vehicle enters its second six-figure mileage bracket. Typical costs will include premium tyres and specialized Land Rover parts, contributing to a higher annual spend than a standard family SUV.
Specifically check the nearside front lower suspension arm for movement, as this was flagged as worn in February 2025. It is important to verify if this bush has since been replaced or if the wear has progressed.
Inspect the headlamps and tyres, which are identified as common failure points for this model in aggregate data. General wear and tear should be assessed against the 119,213 miles recorded to ensure the vehicle's condition is consistent with its usage.
This 2020 grey Land Rover Discovery HSE SD6 has recorded 119,213 miles, which is substantially higher than the model average. The vehicle has passed all four of its MOT tests, with the only recorded defect being a 2025 advisory for a worn nearside front lower suspension arm bush.
The Discovery has an average MOT pass rate of 89.6%, with common failures often related to lighting and tyres.
