LROVER RROVERSPORT RANGE ROVER SPORT2006 · 4.2L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the record indicates a lack of recent testing for five years. The most recent MOT in August 2021 at 133,582 miles passed with only a minor advisory regarding a damaged windscreen. This followed a clean pass in 2019, suggesting that the vehicle maintained a functional mechanical standard during that period. However, because the current date is June 2026, the vehicle is significantly overdue for its test, and its current safety and emissions status cannot be verified without a fresh inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. Between September 2018 and August 2019, the car covered 7,025 miles, while it saw only 3,381 miles between the 2019 and 2021 tests. This indicates relatively low use in the more recent years, which can mitigate wear on drivetrain components but often increases the risk of perishably rubber components, dry-rott seals, and brake-related corrosion if the vehicle has sat for long periods without movement. A physical inspection must focus on the structural concerns noted in the 2018 test. The tester flagged a very rusty and deteriorated fuel tank support, and while it was secure at the time, corrosion on these models is often progressive and requires close monitoring. The previous report of oil moisture at the nearside lower suspension in 2018 suggests a potential shock absorber leak or seal failure that should be checked for signs of active weeping. Given the age and the low mileage profile, the buyer should also inspect the suspension bushes and bushings for cracking or degradation, as these components fail due to time regardless of distance driven.
