Each bar is the share of MOTs with no fault in that area; the tick marks the fleet average for 13-year-plus cars. From 133,763 real DVSA MOT tests (2024). This reflects the model in general, not this specific car. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
Commonly reported for the Discovery 3/4 & Range Rover Sport diesel, 2004–2018. This is general guidance for the model, not findings on this specific car — use it as questions to ask the seller.
Air-suspension compressors and air springs are a common and costly failure — watch for the car sitting low or a suspension warning on startup.
Ask: Does it sit level on startup, are there any suspension warnings, and has the compressor or air springs been replaced?
EGR valves and inlet manifolds soot up on these diesels and can cause rough running.
Ask: Any rough running, or EGR / inlet-manifold work done?
The 2.7 has rare but catastrophic crankshaft/oil-pump failures; regular oil changes matter a lot.
Ask: Is there a full, regular oil-change history?

This 2007 Discovery presents as a **clear, lower-risk used purchase** based on MOT records and mileage consistency, though full provenance checks remain important. The 110,800 miles read plausibly across six test records with no sign of clocking, and the diesel engine has performed better than average for its age—passing MOT first-time in about 7 out of 10 cases, which outperforms comparable vehicles. One historical MOT failure is noted, but the most recent test passed without significant recorded defects. Worth confirming the vehicle isn't subject to any outstanding recalls and checking its finance and ownership history before purchase, as these details aren't yet verified on the records available.
