2014 Land Rover Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 Auto 4.4L Diesel · KKZ 244

The 2014 Range Rover Vogue SE SDV8 presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record. The most recent test, conducted on 19 March 2026 at 163,749 miles, passed with zero defects or advisories. This marks three consecutive flawless MOTs, following a clean pass on 14 March 2025 and another on 29 February 2024. The maintenance trend is firmly stable, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged across the entire available history. The vehicle has demonstrably met DVSA standards consistently over the last three years without any deterioration. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of sustained, high-intensity use. Between the February 2022 test at 124,848 miles and the March 2026 test at 163,749 miles, the vehicle covered 38,901 miles in just over four years, averaging roughly 9,700 miles annually in that period. The pace accelerated notably in the most recent year, with 7,840 miles added between March 2025 and March 2026 alone. This is significantly above the vehicle's lifetime average of approximately 13,646 miles per year, indicating the current or most recent keeper has been covering serious ground. The 2024 record shows a failed test on 22 February with no defects noted, followed by a clean retest just seven days later on 29 February, suggesting a minor administrative or sensor-related issue was swiftly resolved. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should approach a 163,000-mile SDV8 with thorough due diligence. The complete absence of advisories is encouraging, but high-mileage air suspension systems demand close inspection. Check the compressor for excessive cycling, listen for air leaks at the front and rear bags, and verify the vehicle sits level without sagging overnight. The SDV8's turbocharged diesel powertrain should be assessed for oil weeping from the turbo intercooler pipes and any signs of EGR or DPF clogging, particularly if the mileage includes a high proportion of short journeys. Brake discs and pads may appear fine at the test threshold but could be nearing replacement given the weight of this vehicle and the distances covered. Inspect the chassis and subframes carefully for corrosion, especially around the rear trailing arms and front crossmember, as salt exposure on a vehicle used year-round will accelerate structural decay long before an MOT tester flags it.
