2015 Land Rover Defender 2.2L Diesel · UK65 DEF

The vehicle presents as a roadworthy asset, having passed its most recent inspection in December 2025 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend remains stable, despite a single failure noted in November 2024 which was immediately rectified to pass the re-test. The history shows a clean bill across the last three tests, indicating the vehicle is maintained to a functional standard during its operational periods. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an artwork-year-old vehicle, averaging only approximately 800 miles per year. There are significant gaps between testing intervals, most notably the two-year period between December 2022 and November 2024 where the vehicle covered only 1,495 miles. While the low mileage suggests minimal wear on the engine and drivetrain, such long periods of inactivity often lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, fluid breakdown, and internal corrosion within the braking system. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection focused on components affected by age and low-mileage storage. Specific attention is required regarding the condition of the tyres, suspension bushes, and hoses, which may perish or crack from age rather than use. Additionally, the brake components should be checked to ensure they have not seized during long periods of standing, and the chassis should be examined for surface rust that can develop on vehicles that sit stationary for extended durations.
