Our Verdict
This 2018 Land Rover Range Rover is an exceptionally well-preserved luxury SUV with remarkably low mileage for its age. Backed by a clean run of MOT passes, it presents an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking flagship British motoring without the typical high-mileage wear.
When inspecting this 2018 Range Rover, verify that the recent advisory for rear brake pads noted in the March 2026 MOT test has been addressed by the seller. Given the complex electronics and high-end specification of a flagship Range Rover, ensure every feature—from the infotainment system and air suspension to the panoramic roof—is fully operational during your test drive. Demand a comprehensive service history detailing regular oil changes, as these 3.0-litre diesel engines thrive on meticulous maintenance.
Negotiate on the price if the rear brake pads or tyres require immediate replacement, using the latest March 2026 test notes as leverage. Check the alloy wheels for curbing against the grey bodywork, and ensure all four tyres match in quality. A professional pre-purchase inspection by a marque specialist is always recommended to verify the health of the air suspension and drivetrain.
Running a luxury 3.0-litre diesel Range Rover involves premium costs appropriate for a flagship SUV. Fuel economy will vary depending on your mix of urban and motorway driving, though the diesel engine is well-suited for long-distance cruising. Insurance falls into a very high group, and vehicle excise duty (road tax) will attract standard upper-tier rates for a premium vehicle of this age.
Maintenance and servicing should be budgeted carefully; while this example has low mileage and a strong MOT record, parts and labour at specialist garages or main dealers are costly. Expect typical annual routine servicing and consumables to require a healthy budget, alongside insuring and taxing the vehicle. Estimated total annual running cost: £2,200-£2,800 depending on mileage and insurance profile.
Pay close attention to the items flagged in past MOT histories, specifically the rear brake pads noted as wearing thin during the March 2026 test, and monitor tyre condition following past advisories for slight damage in 2023. Although the offside front constant velocity boot was noted as severely deteriorated back in February 2022 at 20,618 miles, check that this was properly replaced and inspect the current state of all drive shaft boots and suspension components.
Given that model-wide data indicates suspension arms and tyres are common failure points for Range Rovers, thoroughly inspect the air suspension system for any sagging or uneven ride height. Check the bodywork and paint condition around the grey panels for parking dings, and test all electrical systems thoroughly to ensure the battery and charging systems are robust.
First registered in March 2018 and finished in a sophisticated grey, this Range Rover features a potent 2993.0cc diesel engine and has covered just 29,472 miles to date. Its MOT history is remarkably clean, showing straight passes every year with only minor advisory items such as thin rear brake pads and tyre notes recorded. This mileage is well below the national average for a vehicle of this age, indicating it has likely been used as a cherished second or weekend vehicle.
The Range Rover model maintains an aggregate MOT pass rate of 83.4%, with suspension arms, tyres, and headlamps forming the most common failure points across the wider fleet.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2018 model year cars.
- Transfer Box / PTU FailureSerious
The Power Transfer Unit (PTU) can fail or leak, leading to expensive driveline repairs.
- Ingenium Timing Chain Wear (The "Slap")Serious
The 2.0 diesel engine suffers from timing chain stretch, often known as "timing chain slap". This is accelerated by oil dilution reaching the 6-7% threshold, which degrades lubrication.
- Door Lock Actuator FailuresModerate
The door lock actuators fail intermittently, causing doors to unlock spontaneously or refuse to lock. A common and annoying electrical fault.
