2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · 56 JB

The vehicle is roadworthy as of its latest MOT on 26 February 2026, passing with only a minor advisory on a non-obligatory rear stop lamp—this is not a failure and does not affect safety or legal compliance. The maintenance trend appears stable overall, with five consecutive passes since 2022 and no major defects recorded in four of those tests; the sole advisory in the most recent test relates to a lamp that is not required by regulation, suggesting routine upkeep has been maintained without significant mechanical decline. Mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle’s age of 14 years, progressing from 67,715 miles in March 2022 to 91,346 miles in February 2026—a net increase of 23,631 miles over just under four years, averaging approximately 6,000 miles annually. There are no gaps longer than three months between tests, and mileage growth is steady, indicating regular use rather than long-term storage. The two consecutive advisories on front tyre wear in 2024 suggest possible alignment issues or uneven loading patterns, but no subsequent failures or related mechanical defects appeared in later tests, implying the issue may have been addressed or stabilised. A buyer should inspect the front suspension and braking components closely, as repeated tyre edge wear can indicate worn suspension bushes, ball joints, or misaligned geometry—issues that, if left unresolved, may accelerate further tyre degradation or compromise handling. The rear brake calipers or pads should also be checked for signs of binding or uneven wear, especially given the proximity of the stop lamp advisory to potential electrical or mechanical faults in the brake light circuit. Structural rust, particularly around wheel arches, sills, or subframes, should be examined, though no corrosion advisories have appeared in the record to date. Finally, verify that the stop lamp circuit is functional, as its failure, while non-critical, reflects possible overlooked electrical maintenance.
