2021 Land Rover R Rover Evoque R-DYN D Mhev A 2.0L Diesel · AE71 RXP

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift from a clean record to emerging wear-related issues. While it passed the most recent test in August 2025 at 25,586 miles, the tester flagged multiple advisories that were not present in the previous year. This transition indicates that while the vehicle is mechanically capable of passing, it is now entering a phase where consumable components require immediate proactive attention. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,117 miles annually. Between the September 2024 test at 16,167 miles and the August 2025 test, the vehicle covered 9,419 miles in under eleven months. This recent spike suggests a change in usage patterns. The low annual average can sometimes lead to flat-spotting tyres or corrosion on brake components if the car sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the front braking system. The most recent record notes pitting and scoring on both nearside and offside front brake discs, which often results from moisture-induced corrosion on low-mileage luxury vehicles. The advisories regarding both front tyres being worn close to the legal limit and on the edge suggest a potential alignment issue or uneven suspension wear. You should verify the remaining depth across all tyres and check for irregular wear patterns before finalizing the purchase.
