Engine seized

Whole thing is very fishy and I for one could not afford to splash that amount of cash, have that happen and then not go ape at the company that made the car. Read up on the consumer protection act before doing anything rash.

How many oil/filter services will it have missed at 24k miles? 🤔

Not many I suspect but IMO the first services are the most important and may have spotted something more serious.
Mine was 25k overdue according to the dash when I bought it but at 100k it had a fair few prior.
I'd still expect it to last past 24K but maybe there are other factors involved that the OP isn't saying.

I am sure it ought to have had at least the first service at about 10 k, after that who knows, lots of cars only have them at 20k.
Wife's Pluriel we bought at about 10 years old. Had only had one service but then only had 12k miles on the clock.

so I looked it up, first at 16 k or one year, then 2 years of 32k and so on.

Thank you all for your help.
Found a helpful company called scrapcarcomparison.com who have been very helpful.

But rather sad that a 58k car needs to be scrapped after just 24,000 miles - a very bad reflection on landrover.

Needless to say that i will not be ever buying another landrover!!!!!!! (mercedes GLB looks a better option)

Of course they will be helpful, they will most likely sell it 3× what they give you for it!

What is their offer?
You need to discuss with LandRover, of course they need to see the vehicle first.
Who has inspected it in the first instance and what did the written report say.
