This 2003 Land Rover has 22 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 42,486 miles. The recent low mileage and valid MOT are positive, but the pattern of wear items suggests a need for immediate investment.
The vehicle shows normal usage with 42,486 miles over 23 years, averaging 8,271 miles/year, with a recent significant drop in annual mileage.
Things to check
- Recurring brake advisories across 4 tests (Oct 2018, Oct 2019, Dec 2021, Dec 2022) indicate ongoing wear.
- Recurring steering advisories across 3 tests (Oct 2018, Oct 2019, Dec 2021) suggest a pattern of wear.
- Recurring tyre advisories across 2 tests (Oct 2018, Oct 2019) point to a history of neglected maintenance.
- The 2020 and 2023 MOT gaps suggest periods of off-road use or lack of maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- No MOT failures recorded across 6 tests, indicating no immediate safety concerns.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory averaging 8,271 miles/year, with no suspicious drops.
