2014 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · 12 D

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 17 March 2026 with no defects recorded. The overall maintenance trend is exceptionally stable, as the DVSA records show a consistent streak of clean passes without a single advisory or failure since February 2022. For a vehicle of this age and complexity, such a clean record indicates a disciplined approach to maintenance and suggests that the previous owner has likely addressed wear and tear items before they reached a critical failure point. At 75,295 miles over approximately twelve years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 6,275 miles per year. This usage rate is considered typical to low for this class of vehicle, meaning the mechanical components have not been subjected to excessive high mileage fatigue. However, this level of usage implies that the vehicle may have spent significant periods stationary or been used for shorter journeys, which can lead to different wear patterns than those found in high mileage motorway vehicles. Given the absence of MOT advisories, the physical inspection should focus on age related degradation rather than specific failure points. It is essential to examine the tyre sidewalls for signs of perishing or ozone cracking, as tyres can expire due to age even if the tread depth remains legal. The brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or pitting, and the calipers checked for binding, which can occur if the vehicle has not been driven frequently or with sufficient brake pressure. The health of the 12V battery should also be verified, as the complex electronic systems in this model are highly sensitive to voltage drops. Attention must be paid to the service history to ensure that calendar based maintenance has been performed regardless of the low annual mileage. Specifically, verify that the engine oil, coolant, and brake fluids have been replaced according to the manufacturer intervals to prevent internal corrosion and fluid degradation. A thorough check of the air suspension system is advised, listening for the compressor running excessively or observing any sagging after the vehicle has been parked. Finally, ensure all service book stamps align with the recorded mileage to confirm the authenticity of the vehicle history.
