AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Land Rover has 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 30,165 miles. The vehicle's age and known model weaknesses warrant a thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,079 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- Recurring brake advisories (Jan 2019) and tyre advisories (Jan 2020) across multiple tests.
- Major suspension failure (Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint, Jan 2023) suggests past neglect.
- High mileage for a 2012 vehicle (127,836 miles) indicates significant wear and tear.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent annual mileage (9,079 miles/year) suggests regular use, not prolonged storage.
