2016 Land Rover Discovery 3.0L Diesel · YJ16 EBH

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-09 at 81,395 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating current roadworthiness. A review of the past three years shows a stable maintenance trend, with no recurring mechanical issues. The 2024-07-12 test at 69,143 miles passed, despite an earlier failed test on the same date at 69,142 miles—likely a data entry error or duplicate submission. No structural, braking, or suspension faults were noted in any test, suggesting consistent upkeep. Mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage of ~8,140 miles, showing no abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity. The 2023-07-20 test at 57,627 miles and 2022-07-13 test at 46,184 miles confirm steady, predictable wear. No gaps in testing exceed 12 months, and the absence of advisories or critical failures implies no urgent concerns. However, the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant scrutiny of components prone to gradual degradation. A physical inspection should focus on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as these often show wear in high-mileage SUVs. The absence of corrosion reports is positive, but a thorough check of underbody panels and chassis seams is advised. While MOT records show no major faults, the 2024 failed test—despite no defects listed—merits clarification to confirm whether it reflected a technical anomaly or unresolved issues. Overall, the vehicle appears well-maintained but requires a hands-on assessment to verify hidden wear.
