LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER SPORT2008 · 2.7L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a clean MOT history over the last five years. The most recent test on 12 July 2023 at 124,290 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This streak of clean passes suggests that the previous owners maintained the vehicle to a standard that avoided the common mechanical failures or structural degradations typically seen in Land Rovers of this age. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. Between April 2019 at 102,568 miles and July 2023 at 124,290 miles, the car covered 21,722 miles, representing steady usage rather than long periods of neglect or high-distance commuting. This low annual mileage reduces the wear on high-stress components like the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber seals and fluid components if the vehicle sat stationary for extended durations between tests. Despite the lack of recorded faults, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of known areas common to the Range Rover Sport. At 124,000 miles, the air suspension system is prone to leaking bellows and compressor failure, which are not always captured in a standard MOT. Check the chassis for corrosion on the rear subframe and mounting points, as the MOT only flags structural integrity issues once they become significant. Since the record shows no advisories for binding calipers or worn bushes, verify the physical condition of the brakes and steering linkage to ensure the documented history matches the current state.
