2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque R-DYN S D A 2.0L Diesel · FM69 HNK

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the recent MOT history indicates a shift toward deferred maintenance on consumables. While the most recent test in December 2025 at 40,640 miles passed, it introduced several advisories that were absent in previous years. The tester flagged thin rear brake pads and pitted or scored discs on both rear wheels. This suggests that the braking system is now reaching the end of its effective life and requires immediate attention. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year over the six-year period. There is a notable gap between the July 2022 test at 7,426 miles and the January 2024 test at 16,571 miles, where the car covered over 9,000 miles in 18 months. Despite this period of activity, the overall low annual mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components, which explains the perishing and cracking of the tyres noted in the latest inspection. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the rear braking assembly and tyres. The December 2025 advisory regarding cracking on both nearside and offside rear tyres indicates the rubber is failing due to age and low use rather than just tread depth. Furthermore, the condition of the rear brake discs suggests the vehicle may have sat for long periods or experienced infrequent use, leading to surface corrosion. Given the vehicle's age, also check for signs of wear on the suspension bushings to ensure the low-mileage usage has not resulted in dry rot of structural components.
