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

This 2002 Land Rover has 19 MOT tests on record with a 95% pass rate and 12,533 miles. The vehicle's age and potential for accumulated wear, combined with a history of major fuel system and suspension issues, warrant extreme caution.

The vehicle shows very low mileage of 37,950 miles over 24 years, with suspiciously low readings before May 2013 and August 2019, and a significant drop in annual usage from 2019 onwards, indicating potential odometer fraud or a long period of inactivity.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below average: 37,950 miles over 24 years (UK average: 8,000 miles/year).
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low readings before May 2013 (87 mi/yr equivalent) and August 2019 (46 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Major Fuel System Failure: Front fuel system component leaking around high pressure pump (6.1.3 (b) (i)) — Dec 2021 failure.
  • Major Suspension Failure: One major failure in Dec 2021, with 4 related advisories across subsequent tests.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Strong Recent MOT Pass: Valid MOT until January 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No Dangerous Defects: No DANGEROUS-rated defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent Pass Record: 6 of 7 MOT tests passed, showing general maintenance compliance.
