2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HSE D Mhev A 3.0L Diesel · 7790 MC

The vehicle presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend. The most recent MOT, conducted on 3 July 2025 at 23,726 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. A clean pass with no advisories or failures indicates that core mechanical and structural systems were operating within acceptable tolerances at that time. The absence of recurring defects across both recorded tests suggests the vehicle has not suffered from chronic mechanical neglect. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2021 model. Between the January 2025 test at 23,212 miles and the July 2025 test at 23,726 miles, the vehicle covered just 514 miles over a six-month period. This extremely low usage pattern raises the possibility of prolonged sitting, which can affect tyre flat-spotting, brake disc surface corrosion, and battery health. Annual mileage sits at roughly 4,745 miles per year, well below the UK average. While low mileage generally reduces drivetrain wear, extended idle periods can introduce their own maintenance concerns that a standard MOT does not fully assess. The MOT record is sparse, with only two entries available and no defects flagged in either. This clean history is positive but limited in depth. A buyer should not treat two consecutive clean passes as a guarantee of underlying condition. The Range Rover Sport's air suspension system, known for compressor and airbag failures on higher-mileage examples, warrants close inspection given the vehicle's age regardless of recorded mileage. Electronic parking brake mechanisms and rear brake calipers are common binding points on this platform and should be tested under load. A physical inspection should focus on suspension bushes, coil spring integrity, and any signs of structural corrosion around subframes and mounting points. Tyre condition deserves attention given the low annual mileage, as age-related sidewall deterioration can occur independently of tread depth. The diesel particulate filter and exhaust emissions system should also be verified, as short-journey use can accelerate DPF clogging and affect long-term engine efficiency.
