2018 Land Rover Range Rover Velar 3.0L Diesel · CT18 KKL

The 2018 Range Rover Velar presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 April 2025 at 88,381 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a failed test on 24 April 2025 at 88,375 miles where the DVSA system logged no specific defects, indicating the failure likely stemmed from administrative or unlisted procedural grounds rather than mechanical fault, with the vehicle cleared one day later. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,048 miles per year against the 88,381 miles recorded. The records show steady accumulation: 64,571 miles in April 2022, 76,322 in April 2023, 83,090 in April 2024, and 88,381 by April 2025. No rapid jumps or standing gaps appear. The clean pass history across four consecutive years with zero advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion points to consistent basic upkeep by prior keepers. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underside corrosion given Land Rover aluminium architecture can hide localised fatigue not caught in a visual MOT. The absence of advisories on brake discs, coil springs, or exhaust emissions across the record is a positive signal, yet the unexplained April 2025 failure warrants confirmation that no latent binding calipers or emission irregularities were masked by a rapid retest. Given the sparse but clean record, in-person checks should target drivetrain mounts, front suspension arm wear, and electronic fault codes outside MOT scope. The vehicle's history implies disciplined servicing, though the single-day fail-pass sequence remains a minor query for the buyer to clarify with the seller's documentation.
