2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · AE67 NVH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to servicing. The most recent test in December 2025 at 89,977 miles passed despite an advisory for thin nearside rear brake pads and a damaged windscreen. This follows a failure in late January 2024 where both front and rear brake pads reached the wear indicators, suggesting that the owner only addresses critical components once they fail an official inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. There is a significant gap of 40,155 miles recorded between January 2023 (31,640 miles) and January 2024 (71,795 miles), followed by another 18,182 miles between the January 2024 and December 2025 tests. This steady accumulation suggests the car has been used regularly, which generally helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and prevents seizing calipers in the braking system. A buyer must personally inspect the braking system closely, as the record shows recurring issues with pad thickness across multiple years. The advisory from December 2025 regarding the nearside rear pads should be verified to ensure they have been replaced since the test. Furthermore, the January 2025 advisory regarding perishing or cracking rear tyres indicates that the rubber may be reaching the end of its structural life regardless of tread depth. Physical inspection of the windscreen for cracks noted in the 2025 test is also necessary to ensure the structural integrity of the glass remains uncompromised.
