Our Verdict
Exercise extreme caution. This vehicle h
Prioritise a professional inspection of the chassis and bodywork. The MOT history specifically mentions that the outer sills were repaired and that the underside and rear sub-frame remain corroded; you must verify the quality of these welds. Ensure you check the service history for the 2.2L diesel engine, as an oil leak has been noted across four consecutive MOT entries in 2026.
Negotiate the price based on the high mileage and the likelihood of further corrosion. Given the repeated failures for suspension components and brake pipes, check for recent invoices proving these parts were replaced with quality components rather than temporary fixes.
The 2179cc diesel engine provides the torque expected of a Freelander but will place the vehicle in a higher road tax bracket. Insurance costs are typically moderate for this model, though maintenance is likely to be high given the vehicle's age and the recurring corrosion issues noted in the data.
Annual costs will be driven by fuel and the need for ongoing preventative maintenance to combat rust. Expect higher-than-average spending on suspension bushings and brake system upkeep, as these are known weak points for this model.
Focus heavily on the underbody. Specifically, inspect the jacking points and door jams, which were recorded as 'corroded and holed' in May 2026. Check the rear sub-frame and all underside structural areas for the corrosion mentioned in the July 2026 pass certificate.
Inspect the offside front drive shaft CV boot, which was noted as severely deteriorated in July 2026. Additionally, examine the brake pipes for signs of corrosion or recent replacement, as these caused failures in both April and May 2026. Finally, check for active oil leaks, as this was a recurring advisory throughout the year.
This silver 2007 Freelander diesel has recorded 177,031 miles. While it passed its most recent test in July 2026, the record reveals a series of failures between April and July 2026 involving severe corrosion to sills and door jams, alongside brake pipe and suspension issues. The vehicle's current status is a result of multiple attempts to clear these defects.
With an average MOT pass rate of 78.4% across 145,822 vehicles, this model is frequently plagued by corrosion and brake pipe failures, both of which are present in this vehicle's history.
