2019 Land Rover Range Rover 3.0L Diesel · BJ69 KKE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. While the most recent MOT test in August 2025 at 85,218 miles passed with only a minor advisory for a deteriorated rear plate, this follows a significant failure in early 2024. The trend shows a temporary improvement following a major list of defects, yet the density of faults in previous tests suggests that the previous owner only addressed mechanical issues when forced by a failing test result. At 85,218 miles over seven years, this Range Rover has averaged approximately 12,000 miles per year. This sits above the national average for a luxury SUV and indicates consistent use which places higher demand on heavy drivetrain components. The mileage gap between the January 2024 test at 68,133 miles and the August 2024 test at 77,244 miles shows an accumulation of nearly 9,000 miles in seven months. This rate of travel accelerates the wear on consumables such as brake components and air suspension bellows, which are critical on this model. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the lighting and visibility systems, as the record shows recurring failures with wiper blades, headlamp cleaning devices, and washer systems. The January 2024 failure was particularly concerning due to structural tyre defects, including exposed cords and bulges, which indicate a neglect of basic safety checks. Although the rear brake discs were noted as worn and pitted at 68,133 miles, check for binding calipers or uneven pad wear to ensure the system was properly serviced. The presence of an engine malfunction indicator and a tyre pressure monitoring system failure in the 2024 record suggests that electrical and sensor faults were previously ignored. The buyer should verify that these faults have been fully cleared and that no hidden fault codes remain present. Given the high mileage and the history of missing components like mirrors and stop lamps, a professional inspection of the air suspension and the structural integrity of the chassis is essential to avoid expensive repair bills associated with these high-wear areas.
