2015 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.2L Diesel · CF15 OCC

The vehicle presents a deteriorating maintenance trend characterized by structural corrosion and neglected consumable components. While it passed its most recent test in early January 2026 at 139,588 miles, this result followed a failure just five days prior that revealed critical safety defects. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to multiple structural and mechanical failures in 2026 suggests that the vehicle is now receiving only the minimum level of attention required to remain legal rather than proactive preventative maintenance. At 139,588 miles over 11 years, this Range Rover has covered an average of approximately 12,700 miles per year. The data shows a significant surge in usage between January 2024 and January 2026, where the vehicle clocked over 36,000 miles in a two-year period. This high rate of accumulation has placed considerable strain on the complex drivetrain and suspension systems, which is evidenced by the rapid progression from minor brake wear to significant structural corrosion in the most recent inspections. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front and rear sub-frames, as the January 2026 test flagged corrosion on both units. Although the tester noted they were not yet seriously weakened, rust on high-mileage Land Rovers often accelerates and requires expensive replacement. The rear coil springs also require immediate attention due to documented corrosion, which can lead to sudden structural failure under load. The history also highlights a pattern of ignoring basic safety items. The January 2026 failure revealed a structural tyre bulge and tyres worn to the legal limit, while the 2025 failure showed thin front brake pads and pitted discs. The buyer should verify the current condition of all four tyres and check for alignment issues, as the uneven wear suggests the previous owner only addressed faults after failing a test.
