2017 Land Rover Discovery 3.0L Diesel · YJ17 ACK

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 24 October 2025 at 95,595 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to May 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and consistently meets DVSA requirements without the need for remedial work between tests. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a nine year old Discovery. The vehicle covered 12,022 miles between May 2022 and November 2022, suggesting a period of heavier use, before settling into a regular pattern of approximately 6,000 to 6,500 miles per annum. The gap between the November 2024 test at 89,623 miles and the October 2025 test at 95,595 miles confirms a consistent usage rate of roughly 10,600 miles per year. Because the MOT history is devoid of any flagged defects, there are no recurring mechanical trends to warn against. The absence of advisories regarding brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions over five consecutive tests is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and weight. This suggests a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owner rather than a reactive one. A physical inspection should still focus on common Land Rover vulnerabilities that MOT testers may overlook. Check for chassis corrosion in hidden areas and verify the condition of the air suspension components. While the records show no failures, a buyer should manually inspect the tyre tread depths and brake pad thickness to ensure consumables are not nearing the end of their service life before the next scheduled test.
