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 31 MOT tests on record with a 61% pass rate and 33,510 miles. The mileage trajectory shows a significant decrease in 2009, raising serious odometer integrity concerns.

The mileage decreased from 39,177 miles on 2008-05-12 to 11,025 miles on 2009-05-18, indicating a possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between May 2008 (39,177 mi) and May 2009 (11,025 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • Mileage decreased from 39,177 miles (2008-05-12) to 11,025 miles (2009-05-18), a major red flag for odometer integrity.
  • Recurring major failures in suspension (7 times) and brakes (2 times) across multiple MOT tests.
  • Recurring advisories for subframe corrosion (8 tests) and bodywork (3 tests) indicate chronic structural issues.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT until 2026-10-20, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Oct 2025), suggesting some current maintenance.
  • The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating (2017) provides a high level of safety for a vehicle of this age.
  • The diesel engine offers good fuel economy for a vehicle of this size and weight.
