2007 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 2.7L Diesel · AP05 MAC

The 2024‑11‑02 MOT at 201,454 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy. Since the 2022 test at 192,642 miles, the car has passed each subsequent inspection, indicating a stable maintenance pattern after a single failure in August 2023 that was rectified before the following day's retest. The mileage progression shows a steady increase of roughly 8,800 miles per year, consistent with the vehicle's 19‑year age and the typical 10,600 miles per year benchmark. The interval between the February 2022 test and the August 2023 tests spans about 18 months and adds 2,145 miles, while the jump to the November 2024 test adds 6,667 miles over 15 months, a rate that aligns with normal usage rather than abrupt mileage accumulation. A buyer should therefore focus on the mechanical components that commonly show wear on a 2007 Range Rover Sport: suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or loss of damping, rear brake calipers for binding, and the condition of the brake discs for scoring or corrosion. Structural rust on the chassis, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, should be examined, as should the exhaust system for leaks or excessive corrosion. Although the MOT history records no failures, a physical inspection of tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and the integrity of the drivetrain mounts will provide confidence that the recorded stability reflects genuine mechanical health rather than hidden neglect.
