2011 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · SJ11 UPE

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs regarding consumable components. The most recent test in May 2026 at 143,895 miles flagged thin brake pads on both front wheels and wear on the outer edge of the nearside tyre. While the vehicle passed, the presence of these advisories indicates that the owner is only addressing basic service items as they approach the MOT failure threshold. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. Between May 2023 at 130,359 miles and May 2026 at 143,895 miles, the vehicle covered 13,536 miles. This regular usage suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing stationary, which is generally beneficial for seals and rubber components, despite the high total mileage typical of this Land Rover model. A buyer should focus their inspection on the front suspension and alignment, as the uneven wear noted on the nearside tyre in 2026 can indicate tracking issues or worn bushes. The history also shows a broken exhaust mounting hanger in 2024 and recurring discoloured indicators, which are minor cosmetic faults but highlight general degradation. Given the age and mileage, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the chassis and subframe is essential, as the MOT record does not yet flag any integrity issues.
