2014 Land Rover Defender 2.2L Diesel · Y2 GJE

The 2025‑09‑16 MOT at 44,813 miles confirms the 2014 Land Rover Defender is presently roadworthy, showing no defects and a pass outcome identical to the four preceding annual tests, indicating a stable maintenance record. Mileage has risen steadily from 38,181 miles in October 2021 to 44,813 miles in September 2025, averaging about 3,734 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s age and suggests regular, moderate use rather than long periods of standing or aggressive high‑mileage driving. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear or cracking, examine the brake discs and calipers for scoring or binding, and check the condition of the structural chassis for rust, especially around the wheel arches and underbody, as these components commonly deteriorate with age even when mileage remains low. The absence of recorded defects also warrants a close look at the exhaust system for corrosion, the condition of the tyre tread and sidewalls, and any signs of fluid leaks or fluid‑related advisories, because low mileage can mask long‑term deterioration of rubber and metal parts.
