2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · V40 EJK

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2024-12-11 at 124,560 miles showed no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. Prior tests from 2023-11-22 and 2022-08-17 also passed without issues, though a failed test on 2023-11-20 at the same mileage recorded no defects. This suggests the car has maintained compliance with safety standards, though the unexplained failure in November 2023 raises minor concerns about potential unresolved issues. The lack of recurring mechanical or structural faults in the record implies consistent maintenance, but the absence of detailed defect notes limits definitive conclusions. The vehicle’s mileage of 124,560 miles over 12 years aligns with an average of 10,380 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for its age. Gaps between tests, such as the 14-month interval between 2020-10-27 (95,456 miles) and 2022-08-17 (113,823 miles), suggest periods of reduced activity, which could affect component wear. The 2023-11-20 failure occurred during a phase of steady mileage growth, but no specific issues were logged. The MOT history lacks anomalies, indicating no significant mechanical deterioration, though the sparse data on the failed test limits analysis of underlying causes. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade with age and mileage. The rear brakes and exhaust system warrant scrutiny, as minor faults in these areas could trigger failures. Visual checks for corrosion on the underbody and chassis are also critical, given the vehicle’s susceptibility to rust. While the MOT record shows no major defects, the unexplained 2023 failure underscores the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the absence of hidden issues.
