2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · BA04 BAZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of worsening component wear and developing surface corrosion. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 89,308 miles passed, the tester flagged new issues regarding the offside front tyre and pitted rear brake discs. The disc pitting is a recurring defect from the January 2025 test, suggesting that the braking system is reaching a stage requiring replacement rather than just preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 10,000 miles between February 2022 and February 2023, after which the vehicle settled into a steady interval of roughly 2,400 to 2,600 miles annually. The clean records from 2023 and 2024 suggest a period of stability, but the recent appearance of structural and mechanical advisories indicates that the vehicle now requires more frequent technical attention. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear subframe, as the 2025 test identified corrosion that was not yet seriously weakened. Given the previous corrosion on the offside rear brake pipe in that same year, it is vital to verify that rust has not progressed toward a failure point. The rear brake discs should be measured for thickness, as the pitting has persisted across two consecutive tests and likely indicates the metal surface is compromised. Additionally, the offside front tyre requires checking for deep sidew cracking as noted in the latest entry.
