2004 Land Rover Freelander 1.8L Diesel · YP04 HMV

The 2004 Land Rover Freelander shows a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean pass at the most recent test on 29 October 2025 at 72,392 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. Across the prior three annual tests in October 2024, October 2023, and October 2022 the vehicle also passed with no advisories, indicating the previous owner maintained the vehicle to a standard that cleared the MOT without flagged wear or corrosion. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally light use for a 22-year-old vehicle. The record shows 69,929 miles in October 2022, rising to just 70,761 by October 2023, 71,470 by October 2024, and 72,392 by October 2025. That equates to roughly 900 miles per year across the recorded period, confirming long-term low accumulation. A failed test on 24 October 2023 at 70,752 miles preceded the pass six days later at 70,761 miles with no defects listed on either entry, suggesting the failure was administrative or a minor rectifiable item cleared before full assessment rather than a mechanical fault. Given the sparse and clean history, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points typical of this era of Freelander, particularly chassis outriggers, subframe mounts, and suspension bushes. Low mileage combined with the October 2023 fail-with-no-defect anomaly warrants checking the vehicle had not stood unused for extended periods, which can degrade brake calipers, tyres, and flexible hoses. Verify the actual condition of coil springs, brake discs, and exhaust emissions in person, as the MOT record offers no advisories to confirm ongoing consumable wear.
