2009 Land Rover Defender 2.4L Diesel · SA59 KMZ

The 2025‑03‑18 MOT at 58,609 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend and confirming current roadworthiness. No advisory notes were issued, suggesting the vehicle met all statutory requirements at that time. At 17 years old, the Defender has accumulated only 58,609 miles, averaging 3,448 miles per year, a figure that points to limited use or extended periods of inactivity rather than high‑intensity operation. The absence of earlier MOT entries in the supplied data means the mileage history appears continuous and unbroken, with no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation that would normally accelerate wear on consumables. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, checking for worn bushes, corroded coil springs and any binding in the rear brake calipers, as these components are prone to deterioration even when mileage is low. Inspection of the brake discs for scoring or excessive wear, the condition of the exhaust system for rust or leaks, and the structural chassis for corrosion or fatigue cracks is essential, given the vehicle’s age and the low‑mileage pattern that can mask underlying neglect.
