2008 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.6L Diesel · BL57 ADX

The vehicle currently maintains a clean roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 12 July 2024 at 159,906 miles. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across the two most recent annual inspections indicates a stable maintenance trend. This suggests that the current keeper has prioritised keeping the vehicle compliant and free of immediate mechanical failures during the last twenty-five months of ownership. The recorded mileage of 159,906 over an eighteen-year lifespan averages approximately 8,884 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a premium SUV of this era. The mileage accumulation between the 2023 and 2024 tests sits at 6,459 miles, showing consistent rather than excessive use. Because the MOT history provided is limited to the last two years, it lacks the long-term context required to identify historical patterns of neglect or recurring structural issues. Prospective buyers must look beyond this clean recent record to investigate the complex mechanical systems inherent to this platform. The air suspension system, electronic parking brake, and drivetrain components are prone to wear at this mileage and often do not trigger an MOT failure until they reach a critical state of degradation. You should perform a thorough physical inspection of the chassis for signs of corrosion and verify that all suspension heights cycle correctly without compressor noise. Given the age of the vehicle, check for any evidence of oil leaks around the engine and transmission, as these are frequently cleaned off prior to testing but remain a significant financial risk for the next owner.
