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 18 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 20,989 miles. The recurring brake and steering advisories, combined with a history of timing chain and head gasket issues, warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent annual mileage, averaging 10,583 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a 2020 MOT gap is noted.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements (Jan 2022) — immediate safety concern.
  • Recurring brake advisories (4 across 3 tests) from 2022–2023, indicating ongoing wear.
  • Recurring steering advisories (3 across 2 tests) from 2012–2023, suggesting persistent issues.
  • 19-year-old diesel engine with documented timing chain and head gasket failures in Land Rover history.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 12/15/2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,583 miles/year, showing no suspicious drops or spikes.
