LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER VELAR2019 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 20 April 2026 at 53,957 miles with no defects recorded. This reflects a period of consistent maintenance following a minor failure in early 2024. Since that failure, the vehicle has undergone two clean tests, suggesting that the mechanical and safety components are currently being maintained to the required legal standard. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles annually. The record shows a gap of 7,328 miles between the March 2024 and March 2025 tests, followed by a more rapid accumulation of 8,992 miles before the April 2026 test. This steady mileage indicates regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for the drivetrain and braking systems to prevent issues associated with dry seals. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres and wipers, as the history indicates a reactive approach to these consumables. The 2024 failure at 37,676 miles highlighted a structural bulge failure on the nearside front tyre and perishing on the remaining set, while the 2023 test noted a cut on the nearside front. A physical inspection should check for further sidewall cracking or uneven wear patterns to ensure the previous owner replaced these neglected components with high-quality replacements. While the record shows no recurring structural corrosion or binding brake issues, the focus should remain on the air suspension components common to the Velar. Given the mileage, inspect the air bags for signs of weeping or fatigue, as the MOT does not fully test the dynamic operational integrity of these rubber elements. The lack of advisories in the last three tests suggests the vehicle is currently in good condition, but a manual check of the suspension bushes and brake discs remains necessary for a comprehensive evaluation.
