2021 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 5.0L Petrol · AE71 RWU

The vehicle presents a stable and sound mechanical condition based on its recent MOT history. The most recent test on 16 August 2025 at 62,188 miles passed with zero defects, indicating the car met all required safety and emissions standards at that time. A clean pass with no advisories suggests the previous owner maintained the vehicle adequately, keeping critical systems like brakes, lights, and structural integrity in good order. The maintenance trend remains stable, showing no signs of deterioration or recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation tells a specific story about the vehicle's usage. Between the 2024 test on 26 August at 48,153 miles and the 2025 test on 16 August at 62,188 miles, the Range Rover covered exactly 14,035 miles in just under twelve months. This confirms the high annual mileage of roughly 12,438 miles per year, pointing to sustained motorway or long-distance driving rather than short urban trips. Such high mileage accelerates wear on consumables like tyres, brake discs, and suspension components, even though the MOT record itself remains entirely clean. Despite the flawless MOT record, a pre-purchase inspection must focus on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. The suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers require close scrutiny, as high-speed motorway miles can mask underlying wear that a standard MOT might not catch. Brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining life, given the significant distance covered in the last year alone. Inspect the exhaust system for early signs of corrosion and check the tyres for uneven wear patterns, which could indicate alignment issues or neglected suspension geometry. While the MOT history shows no structural rust or mechanical failures, the high utilization rate demands a thorough physical inspection to verify the long-term durability of these critical systems.
