2013 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · M6 CGN

The Range Rover Evoque currently holds a valid MOT issued on 25 February 2026 at 109,997 miles, yet the maintenance trend is clearly worsening. That most recent test followed a failure on the same day for a non-functioning nearside dipped beam headlamp, insufficient washer fluid, and worn front lower suspension arm pins or bushes. The tester also flagged a corroded rear subframe, a structural concern that did not exist as an advisory in previous years. Passing on the same date suggests the headlamp and washer fluid were rectified quickly, but the suspension wear and subframe corrosion remain unresolved. A pattern of recurring tyre wear and brake wear advisories stretching back to 2024 indicates consumable components are being run close to their limits rather than replaced proactively. The vehicle has covered 109,997 miles over roughly thirteen years, averaging approximately 8,461 miles per year, which is typical for its age. The mileage progression is consistent, jumping from 69,674 miles in March 2024 to 89,325 miles by March 2025, a gain of nearly 20,000 miles in a single year, then climbing only to 109,997 by February 2026. That spike suggests a period of heavier use between 2024 and 2025, followed by a return to more moderate mileage accumulation. No significant gaps appear in the MOT record, so the vehicle has been tested annually without obvious periods of inactivity or missing certificates. A buyer should focus the physical inspection on the rear subframe corrosion, as structural rust on a Land Rover of this age can compromise mounting points and lead to costly repairs if left untreated. The front lower suspension arm bushes were noted as worn in the February 2026 test, so check for clunking over uneven surfaces and uneven tyre wear patterns. The fractured nearside rear coil spring from the March 2025 failure should have been replaced, but confirm the replacement was done and that the opposite side shows no signs of cracking. Front brake discs were described as worn, pitted, or scored in March 2025, so measure disc thickness and check for lipping or heat damage. Finally, verify the headlamp aim and washer operation, as the February 2026 failure suggests an electrical or fluid delivery issue that may recur if the underlying cause was not fully diagnosed.
