AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2004 Land Rover has 19 MOT tests on record with a 84% pass rate and 59,527 miles. The low annual mileage and consistent service intervals are positive, but the high-risk community-reported faults for this model require thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows consistent low annual usage, averaging 5,496 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though a 2021 MOT gap is concerning.
Things to check
- Recurring Engine/Oil advisory across 5 separate MOT tests (May 2024) — a 21-year pattern of neglect.
- 2021 MOT gap — no test recorded between Sep 2020 and May 2022, raising questions about maintenance.
- Community-reported high-risk faults: head gasket, camshaft, timing chain, EGR valve — critical for a 2004 Land Rover.
- Not ULEZ-compliant — significant cost for London driving.
Working in its favour
- Clean MOT pass record with zero failures across all 5 tests
