AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Land Rover has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 30,130 miles. The recent mileage anomaly is a significant concern.

The vehicle shows a suspiciously low mileage of 461 miles in the 12 months preceding the Oct 2025 MOT, despite a normal annual usage of 8,338 miles/yr for most of its life.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defect recorded on 2023-08-01, indicating a critical safety failure.
  • Recurring suspension failures and advisories across multiple tests (e.g., 2023-08-01, 2024-10-01).
  • Persistent brake system issues, including worn pads and parking brake inefficiency (e.g., 2013-03-07, 2024-10-01).
  • Recent mileage of 461 miles in 12 months (Oct 2025) is suspiciously low for a 2008 vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-10-02, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No major structural corrosion failures or write-off markers are evident in the MOT history.
  • Consistent annual mileage for most of its life, averaging 8,338 miles/year, suggests regular use.
  • No recurring dangerous defects or immediate retest failures, indicating issues were addressed.
