AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2007 Land Rover has 25 MOT tests on record with a 72% pass rate and 25,393 miles. The vehicle's mileage has been consistently low, but the pattern of recurring issues and a recent dangerous defect make this a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,388 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage from 2019 to 2021 (4,200 miles in 12 months).

Things to check

  • Dangerous brake hose leak (Mar 2024) — a critical safety defect.
  • Recurring suspension arm failures (Jun 2019, Jul 2021) — persistent wear.
  • Recurring tyre failures (Jun 2019, Jul 2021) — consistent wear.
  • Recurring steering rack advisories (Jun 2020, Jul 2021) — ongoing wear.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until May 2027 — current roadworthiness.
  • No mileage discrepancies — consistent readings over 19 years.
  • Immediate retests for failures — owner addressed issues promptly.
  • Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — high safety standard.
