2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · SL17 AEA

This Land Rover Discovery Sport presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 19 May 2025 at 94,476 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a rapid rectification of a minor issue. The absence of any advisories across the last four years indicates a vehicle maintained to a high standard. The mileage accumulation is consistent and aligns with typical usage for a nine year old vehicle. Between 16 May 2022 and 19 May 2025, the odometer rose from 59,627 to 94,476 miles. This represents a steady increase of approximately 11,600 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration of rubber components and fluids. The clean MOT history is rare for a vehicle of this age and mileage, as it shows no recurring failures regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. The tester flagged no structural corrosion or brake binding throughout the recorded period. This pattern implies a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owners, rather than a reactive strategy of fixing faults only when they trigger a failure. A physical inspection should still focus on common Discovery Sport wear points that MOT tests often overlook. Check the condition of the drivetrain mounts and the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items not captured in a standard roadworthiness test. Verify the condition of the tyre treads and brake pad thickness to ensure consumables are not currently nearing their limit.
