AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2006 Land Rover has 24 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 19,497 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2026-04-15, which is a critical and unexplained contradiction.
The mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage before Dec 2020 (206 mi/yr equivalent) and again before Mar 2022 (98 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in annual usage.
Things to check
- MOT status is 'Not valid' with expiry 2026-04-15, a critical and unexplained contradiction.
- Recurring DANGEROUS defects on suspension (Nov 2020) and tyres (May 2019) indicate severe structural neglect.
- Consistent MAJOR failures on brakes (4 times), suspension (2 times), and bodywork (2 times) across multiple tests.
- Mileage anomalies: suspiciously low usage before Dec 2020 (206 mi/yr) and again before Mar 2022 (98 mi/yr).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a strong safety foundation for its age.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 5,775 miles/yr, well below UK average, indicating low wear.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories on the most recent test (Apr 2025), suggesting current roadworthiness.
