LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER EVOQUE2017 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle is currently not in a verifiable roadworthy state as the most recent MOT test dates back to 29 December 2021. While that test at 47,911 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects, the car has been without a valid certificate for over four years. The maintenance trend is stagnant rather than improving or worsening, leaving a significant gap in the mechanical record. The mileage is notably low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,323 miles per year. Between 21 December 2020 and 29 December 2021, the odometer increased by 5,047 miles. However, the total lack of recorded mileage or testing since the end of 2021 suggests the vehicle has likely been stationary for a prolonged period. Long periods of inactivity introduce specific mechanical risks that a clean MOT from four years ago cannot mitigate. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system to check for seized or binding calipers and pitted brake discs. The tyres should be examined for flat spots and perishing of the rubber compounds due to age rather than tread wear. The engine and drivetrain require scrutiny for fluid degradation and battery health. Specifically, check for signs of corrosion on the underbody and suspension components, as stationary vehicles in damp environments are prone to structural rust. A full service is essential to address potentially degraded oil and coolant before the vehicle returns to regular road use.
