Our Verdict
A strong candidate for those seeking a large diesel SUV with a consistent MOT record. The lack of recent defects across five consecutive tests is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this age.
When inspecting this red Range Rover Sport, focus on the mechanical components that frequently cause issues for this model, specifically the suspension arms and anti-roll bars, which are noted as top failure reasons in aggregate data. While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT failures, these parts are wear items that should be checked for play or split bushings.
Request a detailed service history to complement the clean MOT record. Given the 3.0L diesel engine, ensure that any evidence of regular oil changes is present, as these engines are sensitive to maintenance intervals. Additionally, check the condition of the tyres, as they are a common reason for MOT failure across the wider Range Rover Sport population.
Running a 3000cc diesel SUV involves significant costs. You should expect higher insurance groups and tax bands typical for a vehicle of this size and engine capacity. Fuel economy will be heavily dependent on driving style and load, but as a large diesel, it is designed for motorway cruising rather than stop-start urban driving.
Maintenance costs for Land Rover products can be higher than for mainstream brands. While the MOT history shows no recent defects, budget for the potential replacement of suspension components and tyres, which are statistically common failure points for this model.
Begin by inspecting the underside of the vehicle. The aggregate data for this model highlights suspension arms and anti-roll bars as primary MOT failure reasons; even without a recorded failure on this specific registration, these should be physically checked for integrity.
Secondly, examine the tyre tread depth and sidewall condition across all four wheels. Since tyres are a top failure reason for this model, ensure they are not just legal, but have sufficient life remaining. Finally, check the engine bay for any signs of leaks, particularly around the 3.0L diesel unit, to ensure the clean MOT history is matched by a well-maintained engine.
This 2013 Land Rover Range Rover Sport features a 3.0L diesel engine and has covered 77,518 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The vehicle has maintained a clean MOT history with no recorded defects over the last five years of testing. Compared to the model average annual mileage of 7,560, this vehicle has been driven slightly more than the typical example from this dataset.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 84.7% MOT pass rate, with suspension and tyre-related issues being the most frequent causes of failure.
