2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · ST68 BVH

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, passing its most recent MOT in September 2025 with 33,938 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improvement following a period of reactive repairs. While the vehicle failed tests in 2023 and 2024, the latest clean sheet indicates that the previous owner addressed the identified mechanical and consumable issues to bring the car up to standard. At eight years old, the recorded 33,938 miles represent significantly low usage, averaging approximately 4,242 miles per year. This low mileage suggests limited motorway miles but often leads to the degradation of rubber components due to age. Between September 2023 at 23,250 miles and September 2024 at 29,478 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 6,200 miles, an interval that saw several failures related to minor items like wipers and tyres, despite the low annual mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and rubber components given recurring issues in the history. The 2024 test flagged worn offside front and offside rear brake discs, which, while not excessively worn at the time, indicate the start of a cycle. The repeated failures for perishing tyres and ineffective windscreen wipers suggest that the low mileage has not prevented age-related degradation of rubber-based parts. Inspect all tyre sidewalls for cracking and check the suspension bushings for signs of splitting, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from dry rot rather than mechanical wear.
