2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · EA65 AFE

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the 3 March 2026 MOT pass at 80,450 miles with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend appears stable, with official DVSA tests showing clean passes in February 2024, March 2025 and March 2026 and no advisories across the timeline. A peculiar anomaly recurs: the tester failed the car on 2 March 2026 at 80,447 miles and again on 3 March 2025 at 76,874 miles, each time logging no defects before a next-day pass. This pattern signals procedural or administrative irregularities rather than a worsening mechanical condition. Mileage accumulation aligns with typical use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The 27 February 2024 test at 72,543 miles preceded the 4 March 2025 pass at 76,874 miles, a modest 4,331-mile gain over thirteen months. The 3 March 2026 pass at 80,450 miles added only 3,576 miles across the following year. Such low annual coverage, roughly 7,300 miles per year overall, implies gentle use and limits expected wear on drivetrain and suspension bushes. The record shows no gaps beyond standard annual cycles and remains sparse but free of recorded faults. Despite the absence of flagged defects, a buyer should physically verify structural integrity and consumable items on this Evoque. The repeated fail-pass entries with no defects warrant a DVSA enquiry to confirm the original failure basis. In person, inspect front and rear suspension arms for worn bushes, check coil springs for fractures, and measure brake disc thickness and caliper operation even though the tester raised no advisories. Examine underbody and sills for corrosion given the vehicle's age, and confirm tyre tread depth and exhaust emissions meet standard. The clean passes suggest previous keepers addressed required work promptly, though the unexplained failures hint at test station mismanagement rather than neglected upkeep.
