2014 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER EVOQUE2.2L DIESEL

The vehicle shows a worsening maintenance trend characterized by recurring failures on consumable components. While the most recent test on 21 January 2026 at 114,692 miles resulted in a pass, the vehicle failed that same test due to a nearside rear tyre being worn close to the legal limit, thin front brake pads, and an ineffective fuel cap seal. This pattern of failing on basic wear items suggests a reactive rather than proactive approach to maintenance. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. The record shows a steady progression from 99,008 miles in January 2024 to 106,520 miles in January 2025, and finally 114,692 miles in January 2026. This steady usage pattern indicates the vehicle is driven regularly, which helps prevent certain types of stagnation-related issues, though it ensures consistent wear on mechanical components. A buyer must closely inspect the suspension and braking systems during a physical examination. The January 2024 failure for a fractured offside front coil spring indicates previous suspension component fatigue. Furthermore, the repeated advisories and failures regarding brake pads in both January 2024 and January 2026 suggest that the braking system requires thorough verification to ensure discs are not scored or warped from thin pad usage. Tyre management is another area of concern. The MOT history shows consistent issues with tyre wear and sidewall condition, specifically noting inner tyre wear in January 2024 and edge wear in January 2026. This recurring pattern often points to underlying wheel alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. A technical inspection should confirm that the steering geometry is correct and that the tyres are not being prematurely scrubbed by misaligned components.
