2012 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · YH62 YFK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 at 112,138 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of stability following a mechanical failure in early 2025. While the vehicle maintained a clean record through 2023 and 2024, the recent history indicates that wear-related components are beginning to require attention, though these appear to have been addressed prior to the 2026 test. At 112,138 miles over fourteen years, the Freelander averages approximately 8,000 miles per annum. This aligns closely with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent use, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 8,000 miles recorded between February 2025 and January 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat for extended periods, which is often beneficial for maintaining rubber seals and fluid integrity. A buyer should physically inspect the front braking assembly, specifically regarding the fluctuating service brakes noted during the February 2025 test at 103,965 miles. Fluctuations often indicate warped discs or sticking calipers which should be monitored for uneven wear. Additionally, the nearside front anti-roll bar linkage failed in early 2025; while this was likely replaced, a hands-check of the remaining suspension ball joints and bushes is necessary to ensure other components are not reaching the end of their service life. The application of underseal noted in the January 2026 record suggests a proactive approach to corrosion, but a thorough inspection of the chassis and structural mounting points remains essential to verify the integrity of the protection.
