AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Land Rover has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 39,464 miles. While it has a long MOT, the pattern of neglect in critical safety systems is a major red flag.
The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage (9,182 mi/yr) until 2024, but a significant drop to 4,654 miles/year between 2024 and 2026, suggesting a change in usage or potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failures on 2018-08-30 and 2020-08-30 indicate severe neglect of critical safety components.
- DANGEROUS tyre failures on 2018-08-30 and 2020-08-30 show a consistent pattern of wear and tear on consumables.
- Mileage dropped significantly from 8,000 to 4,600 annual miles between 2024 and 2026, raising odometer fraud concerns.
- Recurring advisories for wipers, windscreen, and engine oil across multiple tests highlight a history of reactive maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT until 2027-01-07, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers.
- Consistent annual mileage before 2024, suggesting regular use and maintenance.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-designed and safe vehicle.
