2023 Land Rover Defender V8 Carpathian ED A 5.0L Petrol · WJ72 AVB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance profile. The most recent MOT test on 23 January 2026 at 16,828 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean bill of health indicates the vehicle is meeting all current DVSA safety and environmental standards. The mileage is low for a three year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,609 miles per year. The record shows a single data point at 16,828 miles, suggesting the car has been used sparingly since its 2023 manufacture. This low usage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can sometimes lead to issues with stagnant fluids or battery health. Given the absence of any recorded faults, there are no recurring mechanical trends to flag. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on consumables that degrade regardless of mileage, such as tyre perishing or brake disc surface corrosion. Checking for signs of moisture buildup in the braking system or flat spots on the tyres would be prudent given the low annual mileage. The lack of advisories regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion suggests the chassis remains in excellent condition. The vehicle appears to have been well maintained, with the most recent test confirming a high standard of mechanical integrity.
