2014 Land Rover Defender 2.2L Diesel · YT64 MFX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the most recent testing cycles. The latest inspection in July 2025 at 173,322 miles passed with no defects, indicating that the vehicle is currently meeting all minimum legal safety standards. This clean result follows a clean pass in July 2024, suggesting that the current owner is addressing mechanical requirements effectively to prevent the failures seen in earlier years of the history. The mileage data reflects high usage for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 14,400 miles per annum. Between October 2021 and July 2024, the vehicle covered over 22,000 miles, indicating consistent and heavy operational use. A notable gap exists between the October 2022 and July 2024 tests, where the vehicle sat unverified for nearly two years despite covering roughly 11,000 miles in that period. This high cumulative mileage places significant stress on the heavy-duty mechanical components typical of the Land Rover Defender platform. A prospective buyer must focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and chassis rails, as high-mileage Defenders are prone to accelerated corrosion in these areas. While the recent records are clean, the failure recorded in October 2022 at 161,787 miles suggests that specific components required immediate rectification previously. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as the high annual mileage typically accelerates the wear and tear on these rubber and metal components.
