2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Petrol · SK68 SGU

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its most recent 2026-03-13 MOT at 52,028 miles. Previous tests from 2025-02-25 (34,016 miles) and 2024-03-12 (25,197 miles) also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. The 2023-09-08 test recorded a failure but no defects, which may reflect administrative error or unresolved minor issues not captured in the report. Overall, the trend suggests no worsening mechanical conditions in the last three years. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,504 miles annually. The 2023-09-08 test at 22,776 miles was followed by a 2024-03-12 test at 25,197 miles, a 2,421-mile increase over six months, then a 9,181-mile jump to 34,016 miles by 2025-02-25. The final 2026-03-13 test showed a 18,012-mile increase from 2025, suggesting potential gaps in testing intervals. No irregularities in wear patterns are evident from the record, though the 2023 failure without defects warrants scrutiny. A buyer should inspect suspension components, particularly rear coil springs and bushings, which are common wear points in this model. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop without immediate MOT failures. Structural integrity should be verified, focusing on underbody rust or damage, especially if the vehicle was exposed to coastal or de-iced roads. The absence of recorded defects does not eliminate the need for a hands-on assessment of high-mileage components.
