Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test in September 2025 with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable and improving; while the car experienced two separate failures in 2023 and 2024, these issues were rectified immediately to achieve clean passes in subsequent inspections. This suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing identified safety or mechanical faults to ensure the vehicle remains legal and functional on the road. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per year. There was a notable gap of over 9,000 miles covered between August 2023 and September 2024, followed by a more recent accumulation of 3,400 miles in the final year. This relatively low annual usage generally limits the drivetrain strain, though the total mileage of 118,000 miles indicates that components have seen significant use for an older Range Rover Sport. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the air suspension and braking system, as these are common areas of failure on this model that often trigger MOT failures. While the recent tests are clean, it is vital to check for leaks in the suspension artwork and uneven wear on brake pads and discs. Additionally, the chassis and underbody should be examined for structural rust, as the age of the vehicle makes it susceptible to corrosion that may not always surface during a standard inspection.
