2008 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2.7L Diesel · AG53 LAN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent years of testing history. The latest inspection conducted on 17 June 2025 at 128,735 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a period of clean passes in both 2024 and 2023. While a failure occurred in early June 2023, the immediate rectification and subsequent two-year run of zero advisories suggest that the current owner maintains a consistent standard of reactive maintenance regarding safety components. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,152 miles per annum. Between June 2022 at 121,791 miles and June 2025 at 128,735 miles, the car covered 6,944 miles over three years. This steady usage rate suggests regular operation rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components and seals. The narrow intervals between tests indicate the vehicle has been kept within the annual testing schedule without significant lapses. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the high-wear areas inherent to the Range Rover Sport despite the clean MOT sheets. Given the age and mileage, the air suspension bellows and electronic air pump must be checked for leaks or perished, as these do not always trigger MOT failures until total collapse occurs. The structural integrity of the chassis should be scrutinized for corrosion, particularly at the rear mounting points, as the MOT only identifies rust once it has compromised structural strength. The lack of recorded advisories in the last two years suggests the brakes and tyres are currently in good condition, but a manual check of pad thickness and caliper movement remains necessary to ensure no hidden binding is present.
