2020 Land Rover Range Rover 3.0L Diesel · 8012 TE

The 2020 Range Rover presents a clean MOT record with no defects, advisories, or failures recorded across any of the three completed tests. The most recent examination on 30 April 2025 at 24,036 miles passed without a single item flagged, indicating the vehicle met all roadworthiness standards on that date. A separate entry on the same day shows a failed test at identical mileage with no defects noted, which appears to be a duplicate or administrative anomaly rather than a genuine mechanical rejection. The overall maintenance trend is stable and unblemished, with no recurring faults, corrosion concerns, or emission failures appearing in the documented history. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle. Between the April 2023 test at 14,971 miles and the May 2024 test at 19,024 miles, the car covered roughly 4,053 miles over thirteen months. The following twelve months to April 2025 added a further 5,012 miles, bringing the total to 24,036 miles. This equates to approximately 4,000 miles per year, well below the national average. Such low annual use can point to short-trip driving or prolonged periods of inactivity, both of which carry implications for component condition that a static MOT record cannot fully capture. Despite the spotless MOT history, a prospective buyer should commission a thorough independent inspection focused on areas that low-mileage, intermittently used vehicles commonly suffer. Suspension bushes, air springs, and anti-roll bar links can perish from standing rather than wearing from use, so check for cracking, sagging, or slow leaks in the air suspension system. Brake discs and pads may exhibit surface corrosion from prolonged parking, and caliper slide pins can seize without regular exercise. Inspect all rubber door seals, coolant hoses, and tyre sidewalls for age-related deterioration, as the original tyres may still be fitted and approaching the end of their safe service life regardless of remaining tread depth. The underbody and structural mounting points deserve close attention for any signs of corrosion, particularly around the rear subframe, suspension turrets, and sill seams, even though no corrosion has been flagged in testing. Verify the operation of the electronic parking brake, all drivetrain modes, and the Terrain Response system, as these complex systems can develop intermittent faults that a standard MOT does not always reveal. The clean record is encouraging, but the low annual mileage and extended periods of potential inactivity mean physical inspection remains essential before purchase.
