2013 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · BN13 KNF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in January 2026 at 123,379 miles identified both nearside and offside rear brake discs as worn. While the vehicle passed the test, this follows a clean report from 2025, indicating that the braking components are now reaching the end of their effective service life after a period of stable operation. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's thirteen-year age, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. There is a notable accumulation of 10,221 miles between January 2025 and January 2026, and another roughly 15,000 miles between December 2022 and December 2023. This steady usage suggests the car has been used regularly rather than sitting stationary for long periods, which is generally beneficial for the seals and heavy-duty suspension components found on a high-mileage Range Rover Sport. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking system given recurring issues. The 2022 test flagged worn front suspension arm bushes, and the 2023 report noted uneven tyre wear and thin brake pads. These indicators suggest that the alignment or bushing integrity may be causing premature wear on consumables. The recent advisory on worn rear discs necessitates a thorough check of the rear handbrake mechanism and calipers to ensure they are not binding or causing excessive heat, which would lead to rapid failure of the new hardware.
