2018 Land Rover Discovery 2.0L Diesel · SC57 PMC

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 12 August 2025 at 58,199 miles with no recorded defects. This represents an improving trend in maintenance discipline following a failure in the previous year. The transition from a failed test in 2024 to a clean pass suggests that the owner addressed the critical safety-related wear items identified during the prior inspection. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,275 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 37,392 miles and August 2025 at 58,199 miles, the car covered 20,807 miles, indicating steady and moderate usage rather than long periods of stagnation. This relatively low annual mileage is generally beneficial for the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can sometimes contribute to the dry perishing of rubber elements noted in the older records. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking system given the recurring faults in these areas. The August 2022 test flagged a split steering uj gaiter and multiple tyres showing cracking across all four corners, while the 2024 failure highlighted thin rear brake pads and worn discs. Although the 2025 test showed no current defects, the history of perishing rubber and thinning brake components suggests that the buyer must verify the current state of the brake fluid and check for further degradation of the steering boots and suspension bushes.
