2012 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent inspection in December 2025 at 185,259 miles. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the last three consecutive tests have yielded no defects or advisories. While a minor failure occurred in July 2023, the immediate rectification and subsequent two-year clean record suggest that the vehicle is being maintained to a passing standard despite its high-mile status. The mileage profile indicates high annual usage, averaging over 13,000 miles per year across its fourteen-year life span. There is a significant surge in usage between October 2024 at 108,399 miles and December 2025 at 185,259 miles, representing nearly 77,000 miles covered in just fourteen months. This rapid accumulation places immense strain on the drivetrain, air suspension system, and cooling components. The gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests also shows a period of lower use, but the recent data confirms a high-intensity operational pattern. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the air suspension bellows and compressors, as the high mileage often leads to terminal failure in these components. Given the recent burst of mileage, checking for signs of oil leaks and excessive wear on the suspension bushings is essential, as the MOT does not test for play. The record shows no structural corrosion advisories, but the age and mileage of this Rover demand a thorough check for rust on the subframe and mounting arms to ensure the structural integrity of the chassis has not reached the end of its service life.
