LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER EVOQUE2012 · 2.2L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-06-06 at 81,232 miles showed a pass with no defects, but the prior test on 2025-05-20 at 80,934 miles recorded a failure without listed issues. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative errors or unrecorded repairs. The absence of defects in the last three passes (2024-05-22 to 2023-06-12) indicates a stable maintenance trend, though the failure raises questions about the car’s condition during that period. No structural or mechanical failures are documented, but the lack of detailed defect reports limits confidence in the history. The vehicle’s mileage of 81,232 miles over 14 years equates to approximately 5,802 miles annually, significantly below the UK average. This low usage could imply infrequent driving or prolonged storage, increasing risks of corrosion, fluid degradation, and component stiffness. The MOT intervals show regular testing, with gaps of 11–12 months, but the 2025-05-20 failure occurred just 16 days before the subsequent pass, complicating the assessment of ongoing issues. The clean record for the past three years suggests no major mechanical decline, though the low mileage may mask wear in systems reliant on regular use. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can lead to uneven wear in stationary periods. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be checked for corrosion or binding, particularly if the car was stored. Underbody rust, especially in the chassis or exhaust, warrants scrutiny due to potential exposure to moisture. The absence of recorded defects does not eliminate risks, and a physical inspection is critical to confirm the vehicle’s actual condition beyond the MOT data.
