2017 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER VELAR2.0L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean passing record through to the most recent test on 5 June 2026. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the vehicle has passed every annual inspection since its first recorded entry in 2020. The most recent advisory regarding a nail in the nearside rear tyre is a minor consumable issue that does not indicate any underlying mechanical failure or neglect of the vehicle's core systems. The mileage accumulation is steady and aligns with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,175 miles per year. The record shows a consistent increase in distance between tests, moving from 23,984 miles in November 2020 to 64,576 miles in June 2026. There are no significant gaps or periods of prolonged inactivity that would suggest the vehicle has been sitting idle for extended periods, which helps mitigate concerns regarding fluid degradation or seized components. Historical data reveals a recurring pattern of tyre wear and replacement, particularly noted in the July 2023 test where both rear tyres were flagged as worn to the legal limit with edge cracking. The tester also identified perishing tyres in June 2022. While these are standard consumable items, the frequency suggests the owner may be running tyres close to their service limit. A prospective buyer should inspect the current tread depth and sidewall integrity across all four tyres to ensure they are not nearing the next replacement cycle. Brake component wear has also appeared in the history, with the 2022 test noting a pitted or scored offside front brake disc and the 2021 test flagging thin rear brake pads. Although these issues were resolved for subsequent passes, a physical inspection of the brake discs for corrosion or uneven wear and a check of the remaining pad thickness is advisable. The absence of any advisories regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust emissions suggests the structural and mechanical integrity of the vehicle remains sound.
