Our Verdict
A recommended purchase based on a consis
When inspecting this vehicle, prioritize the service history regarding the suspension. In August 2023, the MOT record noted worn anti-roll bar pins, bushes, and suspension arm hydro bushes on both the nearside and offside front. You should confirm via invoices that these components were replaced, as they are known weak points for this model.
Given the 3.0L diesel engine and the vehicle's age, ensure there is a documented record of oil changes and filter replacements. Negotiate based on the remaining tread depth of the tyres, as the 2023 record highlighted multiple tyres worn close to the legal limit or damaged.
Running costs for this Range Rover Sport will be significant. The 2993cc diesel engine falls into a higher tax bracket, and insurance groups for this model are typically high due to repair costs and vehicle value.
Fuel economy will be typical for a large luxury SUV, and maintenance costs are generally higher than average. Expect higher expenditure on consumables such as brake pads and tyres, which are subject to increased wear due to the vehicle's weight.
Pay close attention to the front suspension. The 2023 MOT history specifically flagged worn anti-roll bar and suspension arm bushes; check for any current knocks or instability during a test drive. This aligns with aggregate data showing suspension arms as a top failure reason for this model.
Additionally, inspect the brake pipes and pads, as these are frequently cited in model-wide MOT failures. Check the condition of the tyre sidewalls, particularly on the nearside rear, following the 'damaged/cracking' advisory recorded in 2023.
This red 2016 Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel has recorded five MOT tests with a 100% pass rate. While it has accumulated 91,891 miles, which is slightly above the model average, the most recent three tests since July 2024 have been clear of any defects or advisories.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 84.6%, with suspension arms, brake pipes, and brake pads being the most common causes of failure.
