2013 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · RE13 ABV

The 2.2-litre diesel Evoque typically returns 40-50 mpg in real-world driving, though high-mileage examples like this one often see economy drop into the mid-30s. Road tax for a 2013 diesel of this engine size falls into a higher bracket, and from 2026 onwards additional charges may apply for diesel vehicles in clean air zones such as London's ULEZ. Insurance sits in group 30-33, which is relatively expensive for a compact SUV.

Annual maintenance costs for high-mileage Evoques routinely exceed £800 due to the complexity of the four-wheel-drive system, diesel emissions equipment, and premium parts pricing. With 150,000 miles on the clock, major items including clutch, dual-mass flywheel, and timing chain replacement become increasingly likely. We would estimate annual running costs of £2,200-£2,800 including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance for this vehicle.

The 2026 MOT failure specifically flagged front brake discs worn and pitted, rear brake pads below 1.5mm, and a nearside rear brake disc significantly worn — a buyer must physically inspect all four discs and pads, measuring disc thickness against manufacturer minimums. The corroded rear fuel tank metal surround requires close visual inspection from underneath to assess whether it remains structurally sound or has spread to other underbody areas. The offside front headlamp main beam failure should be checked by switching to main beam during the viewing.

Inspect the propshaft presence and condition carefully, including universal joints and centre bearing, as the 2026 test recorded it as missing. Examine the centre exhaust pipe and mounting hanger for signs of recent repair or continued deterioration. Beyond MOT items, the 2.2-litre diesel should be checked for timing chain noise on cold start, excessive smoke, and oil consumption. The nine-speed automatic gearbox (if fitted) should be test-driven extensively to confirm smooth changes, as this transmission is a known source of expensive repairs on the Evoque. Underneath, look for corrosion on rear axle, suspension arms, and exhaust downpipe — all common weak points on this model at this age and mileage.
