2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport 2.0L Diesel · YH67 SFJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than preventative care. While the most recent test on 11 June 2025 at 78,766 miles passed, the failure just nine days prior at 78,387 miles highlights significant oversight. Specifically, the oil leak, failing tyres, and thin brake pads were only addressed immediately after the failure. This suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when mandated by legal requirements rather than during routine servicing intervals. At 78,766 miles over nine years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 8,750 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for its age. The records show a steady accumulation of mileage, with 14,000 miles covered between June 2022 and June 2023, and another 15,000 miles between June 2023 and May 2024. This regularity indicates the vehicle has not sat stationary, which is generally beneficial for seals and rubber components. A buyer must personally inspect the engine bay for the source of the persistent oil leak noted in the 2025 tests, as even non-excessive leaks can indicate failing gaskets or oil covers. The recurring history of tyres worn on edges or reaching legal limits—seen in 2022 through 2025—suggests potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require investigation. Furthermore, the report of thin brake pads and pitted discs in 2022 and thin pads in 2025 indicates the braking system is frequently nearing the end of its service life without proactive replacement.
