2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · YY68 GZZ

This 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport presents an exceptionally clean and stable roadworthiness profile, culminating in a clean pass on 17 February 2026 at 73,237 miles. The vehicle has maintained an exemplary testing record over the last four years, showing no advisory items or minor defects across its recent history. A single same-day fail and pass on 13 March 2025 suggests a rapid rectification of a minor, undocumented issue rather than any systemic mechanical neglect. The overall maintenance trend remains highly stable and indicates a vehicle that has been kept in excellent running order. Averaging roughly 9,155 miles per year over its eight-year lifespan, the vehicle displays a highly consistent and typical usage pattern for a luxury SUV of this class. The mileage accumulation has been steady, moving from its earlier tests up to the 73,237 miles recorded in early 2026. This steady progression suggests regular, active use without long periods of damaging stagnation, which often accelerates component degradation in complex modern vehicles. Despite the flawless MOT record, a prospective buyer must still conduct targeted physical checks due to the inherent weight and complexity of this vehicle. The heavy chassis of the Range Rover Sport places immense stress on suspension bushes, ball joints, and the air suspension system. Inspectors should check the air compressor for quiet operation, verify that the vehicle raises and lowers evenly, and inspect the front lower control arm bushes for cracking or excessive play. The braking system also warrants close examination. Heavy SUVs rapidly wear down brake discs and pads, so checking for lip wear on the discs and ensuring calipers are not binding remains essential. Finally, inspect the underside for any signs of fluid leaks from the transfer box, active roll bars, or differentials, as these complex drivetrain components can develop costly seal failures that do not always trigger an MOT refusal.
