2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 5.0L Petrol · AF70 KZY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from mechanical wear to neglected preventative maintenance. While the most recent test in May 2026 at 43,636 miles resulted in a pass, the tester flagged all four tyres for damage, cracking or perishing. This indicates that the rubber has reached the end of its functional life due to age rather than tread depth, as the front tyres still measure at 4mm. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use profile, averaging approximately 7,273 miles per year over the six-year period. There is a notable gap between the December 2023 test at 38,870 miles and the May 2025 test at 39,438 miles, where only 568 miles were covered in seventeen months. Such periods of low usage often contribute to the degradation of rubber components and the oxidation of braking surfaces, which aligns with the perishing of the tyres noted in the latest inspection. A prospective buyer must focus specifically on the braking system, as the 2023 record identified thin front inner brake pads and pitted, scored rear discs. Although the vehicle passed the subsequent test without defects, the previous condition of the rear discs suggests they may be nearing replacement or suffering from surface corrosion. The inspection should also verify the calipers for binding to ensure the low-mileage usage has not caused the pistons to seize. The perishing identified on all four tyres is a safety-relatedion that must be addressed immediately to ensure grip and structural integrity of the tyre. Given the vehicle's age and low mileage, the buyer should also inspect the suspension bushes for cracking, as these rubber components often perish over time on Rangeing vehicles that sit for extended periods.
