2008 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.6L Diesel · B1 TCL

The roadworthiness status of this Land Rover Range Rover Sport is currently strong, supported by an exceptionally clean recent MOT history that points toward an improving maintenance trend. In the most recent test conducted on April 8, 2026, at 102,934 miles, the vehicle passed with zero defects recorded. This follows an identical clear pass on April 10, 2025, which immediately succeeded a administrative fail on the same day that was promptly rectified. Earlier tests from March 2024 and March 2023 also resulted in clean passes without any advisories. The vehicle has accumulated 102,934 miles over its 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 5,719 miles annually. This low mileage profile indicates light or occasional use by previous keepers. Annual test intervals remain consistent across the recorded history, showing steady usage without extended periods of inactivity that typically cause battery degradation, seizing brake calipers, or perished rubber components. Heavy luxury four-wheel-drive platforms place immense mechanical demands on specific systems regardless of low annual mileage. A physical inspection must focus heavily on the air suspension struts, compressor performance, and lower control arm bushes, which frequently suffer from age-related perishing. Check the chassis subframes and inner sills for structural corrosion, as mud traps and road salt readily compromise these steel sections. Verify that the four-wheel-drive actuator functions correctly and inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear resulting from infrequent heavy braking applications.
