This 2002 Land Rover has 21 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 29,922 miles. The mileage shows a 10-year period of only 2,006 miles, which is a major red flag for potential fraud.
The MOT history shows a 10-year period (2011-2021) with only 2,006 miles recorded, which is a critical and unexplained anomaly.
Things to check
- MOT HISTORY GAP: No MOT recorded for 2006–2020, a 14-year period, making roadworthiness unverifiable.
- MILEAGE ANOMALY: Only 2,006 miles recorded between 2011 and 2021, a 10-year period, suggesting potential odometer fraud.
- CRITICAL RECURRENT ISSUES: Exhaust system insecurity and brake pad wear flagged repeatedly, indicating systemic neglect.
- UNVERIFIABLE MAINTENANCE: A 10-year service gap (2020) suggests no regular maintenance, a major red flag for a 24-year-old vehicle.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP Safety Rating: 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a strong safety record for its age.
- Consistent Annual Usage: Average 9,830 miles/year for the first 24 years, suggesting light use.
- No Recent Major Failures: The last MOT failure was in Feb 2022, and the car has been off the road since.
