2011 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT3.0L Diesel

The 2011 Range Rover Sport presents a stable mechanical profile, culminating in a pass on 2025-09-01 at 89,294 miles. The maintenance trend shows clear improvement; recurring advisories from 2023 and 2024 regarding binding nearside front brakes and corroded front brake pipes are absent from the most recent test, indicating these faults were rectified. However, the latest examination flagged a severely deteriorated inner constant velocity boot on the nearside front drive shaft joint and general corrosion around the rear side skirts. Since the September 2025 test is nearly a year old, a fresh physical inspection is essential to verify the current state of these components. Averaging roughly 5,953 miles annually, this vehicle has seen exceptionally light use for its fifteen-year lifespan. Mileage progression remains remarkably consistent, accumulating between 7,400 and 8,100 miles each year from 2022 through 2025. Such low mileage typically preserves mechanical components, yet prolonged periods of standing can accelerate rubber deterioration and surface corrosion. This pattern aligns directly with the degraded CV boot and rear corrosion noted in September 2025. The absence of rapid mileage jumps suggests careful, limited ownership rather than neglect through high mileage. Buyers must inspect the undercarriage and drivetrain, focusing on the rear structural areas where general corrosion was flagged alongside the side skirts. The severely deteriorated nearside front CV boot demands immediate scrutiny; if left unattended, joint contamination will necessitate costly drive shaft replacement. While the nearside front brake binding and front pipe corrosion appear resolved following the 2024 advisories, a physical check of the braking system for uneven disc wear and hydraulic integrity remains prudent. The nearside rear tyre worn to the legal limit and on its edge also requires attention, suggesting either deferred basic consumable upkeep or potential tracking issues prior to the last test.
