2016 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · C18 DBS

The vehicle currently presents a clean roadworthiness status based on the most recent inspection. The MOT conducted on 08 July 2022 at 49,981 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates the vehicle was in good condition at that point in time, though the lack of data for the subsequent four years makes it impossible to confirm the current state of mechanical components or establish a definitive maintenance trend. The recorded mileage of 49,981 miles for a ten-year-old vehicle averages out to approximately 5,000 miles per annum. This low-usage pattern typically suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it can also lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and seals due to extended inactivity. The four-year gap between the 2022 test and the present date suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for long periods, which increases the risk of hidden corrosion or fluid breakdown that a standard MOT cannot capture. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the air suspension system and bushings, as low-mileage Rovers often suffer from perished rubber and cracking when not driven frequently. Check the brake discs for signs of pitting or binding calipers, which are common in vehicles that spend long durations parked. Additionally, inspect the chassis for structural corrosion, as the 2022 record provides no information on the integrity of the metal over the last several years.
