2017 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 5.0L Petrol · 6 BRG

The 2017 Range Rover Sport presents a stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 12 September 2025 at 70,418 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results since 2022. The maintenance trend is steady with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the available history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,800 miles per year against the 70,418 recorded, which is typical for a nine-year-old vehicle and implies moderate use rather than prolonged standing or high-load driving. The records show consistent yearly increments: 44,097 miles in July 2022, 53,588 in August 2023, 62,749 in September 2024, and 70,418 in September 2025. The DVSA log lists a failed entry on 26 July 2022 at 44,097 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same date, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Given the absence of advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion across all tests, the previous owner appears to have kept the vehicle to a sound standard. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and drivetrain components, as MOT passes with zero advisories do not capture wear below test thresholds. Pay particular attention to the front suspension arms and rear subframe for early corrosion, and verify the condition of consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades that fall outside MOT failure points. The clean record offers reassurance, but physical examination remains prudent before purchase.
