2021 Land Rover Discovery Rdynamic SE D Mhev A 3.0L Diesel · SL21 ABZ

The July 8 2026 MOT at 72,155 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness. Earlier tests at 60,271 miles (April 8 2025) and 48,851 miles (April 12 2024) also passed, though the 2025 test flagged inner‑joint play in the steering rack and tyre wear close to the legal limit. No new defects have emerged since the previous inspection, indicating a stable maintenance trend. The vehicle’s five‑year lifespan corresponds to an average annual mileage of roughly 14,400 miles, a figure that exceeds typical usage for a 2021 model. The interval from the April 2024 test to the April 2025 test covered 11,420 miles in twelve months, and the subsequent period to the July 2026 test added another 11,884 miles in fifteen months, indicating consistent high‑usage rather than prolonged periods of inactivity. The early test showed no defects, suggesting that maintenance has been performed regularly despite the high mileage. A buyer should therefore examine the steering rack inner joints for play, inspect tyre tread depth and edge wear, and verify that suspension bushes and coil springs show no excessive wear or binding. Binding rear calipers and brake disc condition should be checked, as the earlier tyre wear may reflect delayed brake service. Inspect the chassis and wheel‑arch areas for corrosion, especially where previous advisories on structural integrity were noted in earlier records. Overall the MOT history demonstrates a stable maintenance record with no recent defects, but the high mileage suggests accelerated wear on consumables and mechanical components; a thorough pre‑purchase inspection focusing on steering, suspension, braking and structural condition is essential before final acceptance.
