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

This 2005 Land Rover has 24 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 29,825 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with these critical issues, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.

A critical mileage anomaly is present: 54,246 miles in Apr 2012, but only 0 miles in Apr 2013, suggesting possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Apr 2012 (54,246 mi) and Apr 2013 (0 mi) — possible odometer tampering.
  • Mileage decreased from 54,246 miles in Apr 2012 to 0 miles in Apr 2013 — possible odometer tampering.
  • Not valid MOT since 2024-07-22; last valid MOT expired 2024-07-22.
  • Recurring major failures: lights (5 times), steering (1 major, 3 advisories).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety focus for its era.
  • Consistent annual mileage of 4,914 miles/yr is below average, suggesting lower wear and tear.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the last test in July 2023.
  • The vehicle has a long history of MOT tests, providing a comprehensive record.
