2010 Land Rover Freelander GS TD4 Auto 2.2L Heavy oil · SV60 AEP

The 2010 Land Rover Freelander with 131,885 miles shows a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent MOT on 2025-06-07 at 131,885 miles resulting in a pass. However, a prior failure on 2025-05-28 at 131,639 miles—despite no defects recorded—suggests potential procedural inconsistency or a minor unresolved issue. The absence of defects in earlier tests from 2022 to 2024 indicates consistent compliance, but the rapid succession of tests in late 2025 raises questions about whether the failure was a technical error or a minor fault addressed swiftly. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for the vehicle’s age, averaging 8,243 miles annually. The records show regular testing intervals, with no significant gaps between assessments. The 2024-05-25 test at 121,755 miles and subsequent checks up to 2025-06-07 reveal a steady increase of approximately 10,000 miles per year, reflecting consistent operation without prolonged inactivity. This pattern suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly, reducing risks of component degradation from standing. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which are prone to wear in older Land Rovers. The lack of recorded defects does not eliminate risks of hidden corrosion or exhaust emissions issues, which may require a detailed underbody check. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should also be scrutinized, as binding or uneven wear could develop unnoticed. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the May 2025 failure underscores the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical integrity.
