2012 Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0L Diesel · C25 XCH

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of deferred attention regarding consumable components. The most recent test on July 17, 2026 at 101,019 miles flagged a worn offside rear tyre near the legal limit and a worn nearside front suspension arm bush. While the vehicle consistently passes, the persistent appearance of tyre-related defects suggests that the owner only addresses these items when they reach a failure threshold rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. The record shows steady progression, moving from 28,650 miles in July 2015 to 101,019 miles in July 2026. There are no significant gaps in testing that would suggest long periods of inactivity, though the relatively low mileage compared to the age of a Range Rover Sport means that rubber-based components, such as bushings and seals, may be suffering from age-related degradation rather than distance-based wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the history shows recurring issues with suspension arm bushes and ball joints dating back to 2021 and appearing again most recently. The braking system also requires close scrutiny, with thin pads and scored discs noted in 2015, 2018, 2021, and 2024. The buyer should check for uneven tyre wear and binding calipers, given the frequent reports of edge-worn tyres and a noisy wheel bearing noted in 2019. Structural integrity of the chassis and underbody remains vital, though no structural failures have been recorded, the overall mechanical upkeep appears reactive.
