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

This 2001 Land Rover has 13 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 20,617 miles. The vehicle's age, mileage anomaly, and recurring advisories on critical systems present significant risks.

The vehicle shows a 5-year gap in mileage between 2009 and 2014, with only 3,717 miles recorded between Feb 2009 and Mar 2010, and a total of 66,037 miles by Jun 2016.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 66,037 mi over 25 years (typical: 109,910 mi, n=23 vehicles).
  • MOT expired 2017-06-14; vehicle is currently not road legal and requires immediate re-MOT.
  • Recurring brake advisories (8 items) and tyre advisories (7 items) across multiple tests indicate ongoing wear.
  • Recurring emissions advisory (1 item) and brake hose advisory (2 items) suggest neglected maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
  • Consistent retest passes after failures show the owner addressed issues promptly, demonstrating basic care.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
