2016 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · SY66 VLA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a clean record since a single initial failure. The most recent inspection conducted on 13 June 2025 at 69,721 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows three years of consecutive clean results dating back to 2023, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard recently without recurring mechanical or structural issues being flagged by the DVSA. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use profile, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year over its ten-year life. Between the July 2023 test at 62,152 miles and the June 2025 test at 69,721 miles, the vehicle covered 7,569 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular usage which is often preferable for Land Rover components like seals and drivetrain parts over vehicles that sit for long periods. The lack of rapid mileage spikes indicates the vehicle has not been subjected to heavy long-distance strain. While the MOT history is currently clean, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and rubber bushings, as these are common wear points on the Discovery Sport regardless of low mileage. The failure on 10 June 2022 at 55,742 miles was rectified immediately as the vehicle passed on the same day, but the buyer should check for any signs of weeping from the shock absorbers or corrosion on the wish arms. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the condition of the brake discs and tyres is essential to ensure the clean MOT record reflects current mechanical health.
