2013 Land Rover Range Rover 2.2L Diesel · AD51 ELS

The Range Rover presents a currently roadworthy status following its July 2025 test pass at 110,950 miles, yet the maintenance trend is unstable due to repeated same-day failure and pass cycles. The July 2025 record shows a failure and a pass both logged on 04/07/2025 at 110,950 miles with no defects recorded, mirroring the March 2024 pattern where the tester failed then passed the car on 22/03/2024 and 26/03/2024 at 96,243 miles, also with no defects noted. Such paired entries suggest administrative re-tests or documentation anomalies rather than resolved mechanical faults, and the buyer should treat the clean defect list with caution. The odometer sat at 89,871 miles for the March 2023 pass, rose to 96,243 miles by March 2024, and reached 110,950 miles by July 2025. That equates to roughly 6,400 miles in the first year and 14,700 miles in the following fifteen months, a mild acceleration but still below the 8,535 annual average for the vehicle's age. The sparse record across three years shows no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, which for a 2013 Land Rover at 110,950 miles is atypical and may reflect light testing scrutiny rather than genuine absence of wear. Given the zero advisories yet repeated failure-pass pairs, a buyer must commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underside corrosion before purchase. The tester logged no binding calipers or exhaust emissions issues, but the Freelander-class chassis and air suspension at this mileage commonly degrade without MOT flagging. Verify the July 2025 failure cause via DVSA, as the blank defect field offers no technical explanation for the rejected certificate. Prior owners kept the mileage modest and avoided recorded consumable neglect such as tyre tread or wiper blade failures. The clean passes imply basic upkeep was maintained on paper, though the twin failures at 96,243 and 110,950 miles betray inconsistent test preparation. Inspect front lower arms and rear subframe mounts in person to confirm the record's silence on wear is accurate.
