2018 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · 7 JCE

The vehicle presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 July 2025 at 95,082 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 26 July 2024 at 80,182 miles confirms no outstanding advisories have carried forward. The single failure on 23 July 2024 at 80,179 miles listed no defects, indicating a administrative or unrecorded rectification rather than a mechanical fault, with the car passing three days later. Mileage has accumulated in a typical pattern for an eight-year-old vehicle. The record shows 47,877 miles at the July 2022 test, rising to 62,434 miles in July 2023, 80,182 miles by July 2024, and 95,082 miles by July 2025. This equates to roughly 15,000 miles per year across the last three intervals, marginally above the lifetime average of 11,885, with no standing periods or sudden jumps that would suggest neglected storage or ex-rental abuse. The absence of any advisories across all five tests implies previous owners kept consumables and structural items within tolerance. No corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake disc scoring, or exhaust emission breaches appear in the data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of subframe and sills for early-stage rust, verify coil springs and calipers operate free of bind, and confirm tyre tread depth and wiper condition, as these items fall outside MOT failure thresholds until worn. Given the clean history and consistent annual testing, the Land Rover shows no recurring fault trend requiring corrective action. The 2024 failure with zero defects recorded warrants a check of the DVSA refusal reason, but the immediate re-test pass suggests no lasting concern. Pre-purchase checks should focus on service evidence rather than MOT-derived defects.
