2013 Land Rover Range Rover 4.4L Diesel · 131 MM

A consistent record of clean MOT certificates since 2021 defines this vehicle's recent roadworthiness, with the most recent test on 25 March 2026 showing no defects or advisories. While the history from 2019 and 2020 contained minor advisories regarding headlight washer efficiency and obstructions to the inspection process, these issues have not recurred in the last three testing cycles. This trend indicates that the specific minor functional concerns noted in earlier years have been addressed or were transient, resulting in a period of uninterrupted passes without recorded mechanical failures or structural advisories. The recorded mileage of 78,159 miles for a 2013 model represents an average annual accumulation of approximately 6,012 miles. This usage pattern is relatively low for a vehicle of this age, suggesting it has not been subjected to the high-frequency heavy-duty cycles often seen in similar large SUVs. Mechanically, this lower annual mileage typically results in less cumulative wear on drivetrain components and suspension linkages compared to high-mileage counterparts, though it does not account for the potential effects of long periods of inactivity which can affect rubber components and seals. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the headlight washer system, as this was the only recurring mechanical advisory noted in the 2019 and 2020 records. During a test drive and stationary inspection, verify that the headlamp cleaning mechanism operates with sufficient pressure and effectively clears the lens surface without leaking or spraying excessively. While the recent lack of advisories suggests this is no longer a primary concern, ensuring the spray pattern is correct and the pump is functional is a direct follow-up to the historical data. Given the relatively low mileage and the absence of recent advisories regarding the chassis or suspension, the inspection should remain focused on verifying the current state of consumables. Although no specific defects were flagged for brakes, tyres, or suspension bushes in the latest tests, the transition from the advisory period in 2020 to the clean records of 2021 through 2026 warrants a check for any developing knocks or knocks from the suspension over uneven surfaces or any steering pull that might indicate wear in the steering rack or bushings not yet captured by the MOT testing parameters.
