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

This 2010 Land Rover has 21 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 35,164 miles. The vehicle's past is too compromised for a safe purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows a suspiciously low 629 miles/year equivalent before Oct 2024, followed by a significant increase in annual usage.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Aug 2024): Nearside Rear Inner Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • DANGEROUS defect: Offside Front Drive shaft joint CV boot split (Oct 2024) — immediate safety risk.
  • DANGEROUS defect: Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (Aug 2024) — critical safety failure.
  • Recurring major failures: Bodywork (Aug 2024) and Suspension (Aug 2024) — structural integrity concerns.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring failures on the same system across multiple years.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory post-2024, showing no recent large drops.
