2010 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · VX60 FCV

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection on 29 April 2026 with 124,990 miles. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement following a mechanical failure in May 2024. Since that failure, the vehicle has undergone two consecutive tests without advisories, suggesting that the owner has addressed identified mechanical defects and maintained a consistent standard of upkeep. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typically used sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, with 7,066 miles covered between May 2024 and 2025, and another 5,826 miles between May 2025 and 2026. This regular interval indicates the car does not suffer from long periods of stagnation, which is often beneficial for rubber components and seals in older Land Rovers of this era. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and steering geometry. The May 2024 failure highlighted a serious fluid leak on the nearside rear shock absorber and excessive play in the offside front track rod end ball joint. While these appear rectified given the subsequent clean passes, the high mileage suggests that other suspension bushes and ball joints may be nearing the end of their service life. Check specifically for uneven tyre wear, as the 2023 advisory noted outer edge wear on the offside front, which could indicate persistent alignment issues or worn steering components.
